Those who have learnt to blaspheme from mere ignorance shall be imprisoned in the House of Reformation for five years at least, and not allowed to see any one but members of the Nocturnal Council, who shall converse with them touching their souls health.

If any of the prisoners come to their right mind, at the end of five years let them be restored to sane company; but he who again offends shall die.

As to that class of monstrous natures who not only believe that the Gods are negligent, or may be propitiated, but pretend to practise on the souls of quick and dead, and promise to charm the Gods, and to effect the ruin of houses and states--he, I say, who is guilty of these things, shall be bound in the central prison, and shall have no intercourse with any freeman, receiving only his daily rations of food from the public slaves; and when he dies, let him be cast beyond the border; and if any freeman assist to bury him, he shall be liable to a suit for impiety.
But the sins of the father shall not be visited upon his children, who, like other orphans, shall be educated by the state.

Further, let there be a general law which will have a tendency to repress impiety.

No man shall have religious services in his house, but he shall go with his friends to pray and sacrifice in the temples.
