One of the items the musical trio Dagmar, Carol and Polydoros sang to a delighted and appreciative<br />

audience.<br />

I meant to do what I dared to do and I still do not regret it.<br />

Even though I may gain nothing from it,<br />

my honesty must be plain in what I believe.<br />

If you look at it closely, you must serve the commonweal<br />

and not one man alone, even though they call me a priest-hater.<br />

I will leave everyone to lie and say what they like.<br />

If I had concealed the truth, I should have many admirers.<br />

Now I have spoken out and have been banished for it.<br />

I appeal to all honest men though I shall flee no further<br />

and may come back.<br />
