_005195872	Pius XII, Pope, 1876-1958.	To all who are in prison : a message	1951		.txt	text/plain	1838	57	59	The Innocent When, however, full or partial innocence is the protection of your clear conscience and when you are convinced that the rigor of human justice has exceeded the measure of guilt, do not curse adverse fate or false creatures, but lift your mind with confidence to the final victory of truth and of good, and comfort yourselves with the certainty that you have all honest men on your side; be so strong in adversity that you can rise to the point of sympathizing with the errors of law and facts to which unfortunately the inherent imperfection of human judgment is subject; while striving effectively for your legal and moral restoration, make your life of innocent expiation shine forth with a super- human dignity going beyond the reparation of error. Nevertheless, if the severity of human justice temporarily denies you this sweetness, the Divine Child lying on the hard straw for love of us offers you other comforts which are deeper and truer; for this Jesus was invoked by all and especially by you through the voice of the Advent prayer: “Come and free the captive from his prison” (Is. 42, 7) .	cache/_005195872.txt	txt/_005195872.txt
