Again [on the contrary] prosperous [successful] and happy [blessed, lucky] crime [wickedness, sin, calamity] is called virtue [strength, courage, manliness]; the good [honest, brave, noble] obey [are subject to, submit to] the guilty [criminal], right [duty, justice] is in arms [weapons], fear [dread] oppresses [suppresses, crushes, overwhelms] laws [statutes, principles].
