"And now, ladies and gentlemen of the Wizengamot, I come to my and Harry's closing statements. I mentioned earlier that we would make our argument with a mixture of both the objective and the passionate. I now make my argument passionately, as both a mother and a wife – the wife, in fact, of the very man whom you have been asked to judge today. Ronald Weasley is the bravest, most unselfish, most loving man I have ever met in my entire life. But, the quality that made me fall in love with him was his undying loyalty for the ones he loved, be they family or friends. Yes, that loyalty was tested at one moment in time, but it was still just that – one moment in time, out of then 17, and now 29 years. In every other instance, Ron has remained faithful to his family, to his best friend, to his and my beloved children, and to me. At the end of the day, ladies and gentlemen, what other merit have we, but to be loyal? In my view, loyalty is the derivative of bravery, as well as extraordinary acts of magic. Not only did Ron rush Death Eaters for me, he knocked out a fully grown mountain troll for me as a first year; tried to defend my honor and later hurled slugs for me in our second year....and I could go on and on and on. Ladies and gentlemen of the Wizengamot, I implore you to judge this wonderful man by both his actions just described and his character – not for his mistakes. I would argue you did not take into account my mistakes or Harry's – and we did make some - in your decisions for us. Do the same for the man I love. Thank you."
