English Translation
41-41 But gave all those who were of good will the opportunity to cooperate. There was no problem of the multiplicity of life in these lands of Bohemia and Moravia, which this young deputy of the Reichsprotector did not touch and had not fortunately initiated and partially solved the power of his heart, the deep understanding of the laws of our blood and the permeation of the myth of the kingdom. But on May 20, the devious bomb of English origin, thrown by a paid subject from among the most worthless subhumans, struck him and took him down. Fear and too much caution were foreign to him, to him who was one of the best sportsmen of the SS, a bold fencer, rider, swimmer, pentaker, a sportsman of skill and attitude. It is characteristic of his courage and energy, however, that he, himself already severely wounded, still fought back and shot the assassin twice. For days we hoped that his body, which came from the power of healthy ancestors and kept healthy by him in a simple and disciplined life, could remove the grave danger. Then, on June 1, 1942, the fate of the Lord God, the ancient one whom he, the great opponent of the abuse of every religion for political purposes, believed deeply in self-evident unmistakeableness and subjection, completed his physical life. All of us, first of all the Reich Führer, whom he served with all the faithfulness of his heart, and we, his friends and comrades and his two little sons, who are here as witnesses of his infinitely happy family life and as representatives of her brave mother, who awaits a new child, are gathered to pay him the last respects.
