Some of my friends have gone comforted away when they had made a clean breast and circumstantially given me the details of some great crime or evil that they had committed. I never experienced any difficulty, or felt the least compunction in granting them plenary absolution; I never betrayed them to the police, for I knew that of the crime confessed they were as guiltless as myself.
He felt as though he had a friend, and his consciousness of innocence of any violation of human law, and his confidence that his new friend could show that he was guiltless, set his perturbed heart at rest, and he felt sure that he should be acquitted.
Louise had forfeited all right to my consideration, but my guiltless child had not done so. Did it live still? If so, was it not the heir to my fortunes, the only child left to me?

If he shall be found guiltless of this murder, the atonement for other crimes may be more easy.

Let this fact be fairly and openly met, and not merely evaded. Let it be shown how the suffering of mere animals may be reconciled with the infinite goodness of God, and we will undertake to show how the suffering of guiltless “human beings” may be reconciled with it.
She begged him also to take her house, since she had not been altogether guiltless of the destruction of the home of his fathers. The condition she attached to this bequest showed the same keen, alert spirit that had guided her through life.
Take this weapon, shoot me through the head, and with your own hand revenge your sister's wrong, only follow the course the only course, by which her life can be saved." "Alas! is she innocent or guilty?" "She is guiltless guiltless of every thing, but of having trusted a villain!
