 German  English

Im Gegenteil, um Erbarmen flehen war so gut wie darum bitten, daß man gefoltert würde, zusammengeknüppelt, bis man kein Gesicht mehr hatte. (...) [G] On the contrary, to beg for mercy was as good as to ask to be tortured, to be clubbed until one no longer had a face. (...)

Um Erbarmen konnte man nicht flehen. [G] One could not beg for mercy.
