(...) I can see its precious secrets of the sages who do not know how superior is the amount of light to the sum of the wealth that nature has bestowed. And I sat on the throne of freedom, holding the scepter of justice, crowned with glory, to show the majesty of the ancient world of the modern world.
Deign, Legislators receive with indulgence the profession of my political consciousness, the last wishes of my heart and fervent prayers on behalf of the people who dare to direct. Deign to give Venezuela a government of popular, eminently fair, eminently moral, that chains of oppression, anarchy and guilt. A government rule that makes innocence, humanity and peace. A government that do succeed, under the inexorable rule of law, equality and freedom. Lord, begin your duties: I have finished mine. "
