Now, the Duke of Orléans — so ran the minor proposition — a slave to the passion of greed, the source of all evil, was guilty of high treason, and was a tyrant; which was proved by holding him guilty of all the pretended crimes which popular imagination and the partisans of the Duke of Burgundy laid to his charge. The conclusion was therefore that the Duke of Burgundy not only should not be punished or blamed for what had been done to the Duke of Orléans, but rather should be rewarded.
The assertion was made that the Duke of Orléans, driven by avarice, a source of all evil, had committed treason and tyranny; his guilt was established through accusations fabricated by popular imagination and supporters of the Duke of Burgundy. Consequently, it was concluded that the Duke of Burgundy should not be punished or blamed for actions taken against the Duke of Orléans but rather rewarded.
