This is the last time I will talk in this chapel.
1:42:33
I am leaving the valley with regret
1:42:38
toward those who have helped me here,
1:42:42
and who have let me help them.
1:42:49
But...
1:42:53
for the rest of you,
1:42:57
those of you who have only proved
that I have wasted my time among you,

1:43:02
I have only this to say.
1:43:05
There is not one among you
who has had the courage

1:43:08
to come to me and accuse me of wrongdoing.
1:43:11
And yet, by any standard,
if there has been a sin,

1:43:14
I am the one who
should be branded the sinner.

1:43:19
Will anyone raise his voice
here now to accuse me?

1:43:26
No.
1:43:29
You're cowards, too, as well as hypocrites.
1:43:34
But I don't blame you.
1:43:37
The fault is mine as much as yours.
1:43:42
The idle tongues,
1:43:45
the poverty of mind which you have shown,
1:43:50
mean that I have failed to reach most
of you with the lesson I was given to teach.

1:43:57
Huw?
