A traitor is a betrayer - one who practices injury, while professing friendship. Benedict Arnold was a traitor, solely because, while professing friendship for the American cause, he attempted to injure it. An open enemy, however criminal in other respects, is no traitor.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Ein Verräter ist ein Verräter - einer, der Verletzungen erleidet und sich als Freund bekennt. Benedict Arnold war ein Verräter, nur weil er sich während der Freundschaft für die amerikanische Sache zu bekennen versuchte, sie zu verletzen. Ein offener Feind, wie auch immer in anderer Hinsicht kriminell, ist kein Verräter.
