13. Man is not worth more because he is a king, because his nose is aquiline,
and his color white, not because he is a *priest, a servant of God, nor because
of the high prerogative that he enjoys upon earth, but he is worth most who is
a man of proven and real value, who does good, keeps his words, is worthy
and honest; he who does not oppress nor consent to being oppressed, he who
loves and cherishes his fatherland, though he be born in the wilderness and
know no tongue but his own.
14. When these rules of conduct shall be known to all, the
longed-for sun of Liberty shall rise brilliant over this most
unhappy portion of the globe and its rays shall diffuse
everlasting joy among the confederated brethren of the same
rays, the lives of those who have gone before, the fatigues and
the well-paid sufferings will remain. If he who desires to enter
(the Katipunan) has informed himself of all this and believes he
will be able to perform what will be his duties, he may fill out
the application for admission.
