From The Lawyers, A Drama in Five Acts by August Wilhelm Iffland

Can poor, injured, unhappy children, in any situation, be strangers to me? And have wards, intrusted to my care, fewer titles to my assistance than my own children? And have not you, in the name of the magistrates, appointed me one of their guardians? (P. Coun: That, as they are unfortunate, I might see them in good hands.) Why, they are in good hands. I am come to request you to see the business speedily executed. Of the verdict itself I will make no mention. You will act as an honest man, or else I must despise you, and look for redress elsewhere. Meanwhile, I tell you, the children shall not go to the hospital, because that is impracticable. (P. Coun: Father, I Have given my word.) You must recall it.
