IT Does not behove us as Sinhalese to shoot you down with your own guns.
Go take these guns and return them to your governer and tell him that the province of Uva has risen again in rebellion against the English.
I would rather lay down my life as a Sinhalese in the struggle for liberation of the Sinhala country than live in servility under foreigners.
