Invisible Text to hold place--- I. Omnes homines dignitate et iure liberi et pares nascuntur, rationis et conscientiae participes sunt, quibus inter se concordiae studio est agendum. II. Omnium hominum propria sunt quae iura et libertates in hac DECLARATIONE enuntiantur: generis,vultus, sexus, linguae, religionis, opinionis civilis, nullo discrimine atque sine natione divitiis loco discretis. Praeterea nullum discrimen statuetur civitatis forma et iuris aut gentium, regionis aut territorii cuius quidam est, sive ea regio aut territorium sui iuris est vel in administrationis fiduciariae dicione vel non liberum vel in cuiuslibet imperii modi potestate. III. Suae quisque ipsius vitae, libertatis, incolumitatis potestatem habet. IV. Homo nemo iugo et servitute oppressus teneri poterit; nullo pacto, servitus et mancipiorum commercium. V. Homo nemo in cruciatum poterit dari, suppliciis atrocibus adhibendis. VI. Suae quisque ipsius probationis potestatem habet, ubicumque gentium, personae rationalis et civilis. VII. Omnes homines ea lege, qua aequo modo defendantur, sunt pares, sine ullo discrimine. Omnes homines lege aequa suae ipsorum defensionis ius habent ab omni discrimine quod eam DECLARATIONEM violet, atque ab omni incitamento ad id discrimen efficiendum. VIII. Suae quisque ipsius appellationis ad idonea tribunalia patria de facinoribus quae maxima et iusta iura violent ei relata a rei publicae institutis vel legibus, potestatem habet. IX. Homo nemo sine causa prehendi, custodia teneri, vel exilio poterit affici. X. Sui quisque, pari iure, iudices aeque ac coram omnibus adeundi potestatem habet, qui non opinioni obnoxii sint sed integri, ut iura officiaque sua constituantur atque criminis contra se iustae causae.
