Can you show me a declamation piece about unpardonable crime?
Sure, here is an example of a small excerpt that can be used as a declamation piece about unpardonable crime:
"There are sins that are unforgivable, crimes that stain the soul with a darkness that can never be washed away. How can we seek redemption for deeds that defy the very core of humanity? Unpardonable is the weight of guilt that comes with such transgressions, a burden that can never be cast aside. We must carry the consequences of our actions, for some crimes can never be forgiven."
What is the Declamation piece entitled the guilty child?
She stood at the bar of Justice,
A creature, wan and wild,
In form too small for a woman,
In features too old for a child.
For a look so worn and pathetic
Was stamped on her pale young face,
It seemed long years of suffering
Must have left that silent trace.
"Your name," said the judge, as he eyed her
With a kindly look, yet keen.
Mary Aguirre, if you please, sir.""
"And your age?" "I am fifteen."
"Well, Mary," - and then from a paper
He slowly and gravely read -
"You are charged here - I am sorry to say it -
With stealing three loaves of bread.
"You took not like an old offender,
And I hope that you can show the charge to be false.
Now tell me, Are you guilty of this, or not?"
A passionate burst of weeping
Was at first her sole reply;
But she dried her tears in a moment,
And looked in the judge's eyes.
I will tell you just how it was, sir
My father and mother are dead,
And my little brothers and sisters were hungry
And asked me for bread.
At first, I earned it for them
By working hard all day.
But somehow the times were hard, sir, and the work all fell away.
I could get no more employment,
The weather was bitter cold;
The young ones cried and shivered
So what was I to do, sir?
I am guilty, but do not condemn;
I took - O! was it stealing? -
The bread to give to them.
Every man in the courtroom,
Graybeard and thoughless youth -
Knew, as he looked upon her,
That the prisoner spoke the truth,
Out from their pockets came kerchiefs,
Out from old, faded wallets
Treasures hoarded for years.
The judge's face was a study,
The strangest you ever saw,
As he cleared his throat and murmured
Something about the law.
For one so learned in such matters,
So wise in dealing with men
He seemed, on a simple question
Sorely puzzled just then.
No one blamed him, or wondered
When at last these words they heard
"The sentence of this young prisoner is for the present deferred."
And no one blamed him or wondered
When he went to her and smiled
And tenderly left from the courtroom
Himself, the "guilty" child!

Can you give me an example of the declamation piece titled Alms Alms Alms?

Alms, alms, alms. Spare me a piece of bread. Spare me your mercy.
I am a child so young, so thin, and so ragged.
Why are you staring at me?
With my eyes I cannot see but I know that you are all staring at me. Why are you whispering to one another? Why? Do you know my mother? Do you know my father? Did you know me five years ago?
Yes, five years of bitterness have passed. I can still remember the vast happiness mother and I shared with each other. We were very happy indeed.
Suddenly, five loud knocks were heard on the door and a deep silence ensued. Did the cruel Nippon's discover our peaceful home? Mother ran to Father's side pleading. "Please, Luis, hide in the cellar, there in the cellar where they cannot find you," I pulled my father's arm but he did not move. It seemed as though his feet were glued to the floor.
The door went "bang" and before us five ugly beasts came barging in. "Are you Captain Luis Santos?" roared the ugliest of them all. "Yes," said my father. "You are under arrest," said one of the beasts. They pulled father roughly away from us. Father was not given a chance to bid us goodbye.
We followed them mile after mile. We were hungry and thirsty. We saw group of Japanese eating. Oh, how our mouths watered seeing the delicious fruits they were eating...
