But, you see, we are Jews, but we are Romans too. Our names are in the books in the Roman offices. So those bosses broke the Roman law yesterday. And now they want to send us away while nobody is looking. No way. Those Roman bosses have to get up and come to us and tell us that they are sorry, and take us out of this jail.”
