for_o personal_a estate_n the_o subject_n may_v enjoy_v it_o in_o the_o large_a proportion_n without_o be_v able_a to_o invade_v the_o empire_n and_o that_o the_o subject_n with_o their_o money_n can_v invade_v the_o crown_n this_o be_v the_o first_o time_n that_o i_o remember_v to_o have_v observe_v where_o lie_v the_o weak_a side_n of_o invincible_a gold_n indeed_o till_o now_o i_o shall_v have_v lay_v the_o odds_o for_o money_n against_o land_n and_o i_o be_o the_o more_o confirm_v in_o that_o opinion_n because_o i_o remember_v very_o well_o that_o in_o a_o election_n of_o a_o knight_n for_o the_o shire_n a_o certain_a money_v merchant_n not_o have_v three_o hundred_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la land_n in_o the_o world_n be_v able_a nevertheless_o to_o carry_v the_o election_n against_o a_o worthy_a gentleman_n of_o a_o ancient_a family_n who_o have_v at_o that_o time_n above_o four_o thousand_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la land_n of_o inheritance_n and_o it_o be_v think_v that_o the_o force_n of_o money_n procure_v the_o advantage_n many_o such_o case_n i_o suppose_v have_v happen_v in_o other_o county_n which_o argument_n sure_o will_v hold_v in_o a_o kingdom_n as_o well_o as_o in_o a_o county_n since_o the_o former_a be_v compose_v of_o the_o latter_a but_o our_o author_n who_o have_v the_o legislative_a power_n in_o his_o head_n make_v there_o what_o card_n trump_n he_o think_v sit_v and_o from_o his_o unerring_a judgement_n there_o be_v no_o appeal_n merch._n i_o think_v plato_n be_v mistake_v but_o sir_n you_o have_v slip_v a_o remark_n a_o little_a before_o this_o and_o it_o be_v that_o modern_a writer_n be_v of_o opinion_n that_o egypt_n till_o of_o late_a be_v not_o a_o monarchy_n and_o the_o only_a conjecture_n which_o he_o produce_v be_v that_o original_o all_o art_n and_o science_n have_v their_o rise_n in_o egypt_n which_o they_o think_v very_o improbable_a to_o have_v be_v under_o a_o monarchy_n trau._n o_o silly_a true_o for_o our_o author_n reputation_n sake_n i_o think_v to_o have_v pass_v by_o so_o childish_a a_o conjecture_n i_o will_v not_o go_v about_o to_o prove_v that_o real_o all_o art_n and_o science_n have_v their_o rise_n in_o that_o country_n because_o our_o author_n have_v confess_v it_o nor_o tell_v you_o that_o egypt_n be_v a_o absolute_a monarchy_n many_o hundred_o year_n before_o because_o i_o have_v already_o give_v you_o good_a authority_n for_o it_o neither_o will_v i_o trouble_v you_o with_o a_o long_a catalogue_n of_o most_o excellent_a man_n for_o all_o manner_n of_o learning_n who_o live_v as_o well_o under_o the_o elder_a monarchy_n as_o late_a one_o of_o rome_n germany_n spain_n france_n england_n and_o many_o other_o let_v our_o author_n own_o profound_a learning_n rise_v up_o in_o judgement_n in_o this_o case_n against_o himself_o since_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o his_o vast_a politic_a knowledge_n spring_v up_o bloom_a bring_v forth_o fruit_n wither_a and_o decay_a and_o all_o under_o a_o monarchical_a government_n for_o whether_o we_o consider_v he_o in_o the_o day_n of_o king_n charles_n the_o be_v it_o or_o under_o oliver_n or_o at_o rome_n or_o since_o his_o present_a majesty_n happy_a restoration_n he_o have_v still_o suck_v in_o a_o monarchical_a air._n i_o do_v not_o hear_v that_o all_o be_v effect_v at_o geneva_n though_o most_o probable_o the_o first_o sour_a grape_n come_v from_o thence_o which_o have_v set_v his_o tooth_n on_o edge_n ever_o since_o merch._n indeed_o i_o think_v so_o sober_a a_o politician_n may_v have_v spare_v such_o a_o little_a malicious_a remark_n but_o to_o go_v on_o he_o tell_v we_o p._n 45._o that_o rome_n be_v the_o best_a and_o most_o glorious_a government_n that_o the_o sun_n ever_o see_v trau._n our_o statesman_n have_v couple_v best_o and_o glorious_a together_o as_o poulterer_n use_v to_o do_v a_o lean_a and_o a_o fat_a rabbit_n that_o one_o may_v help_v off_o with_o the_o other_o but_o his_o vulgar_a cheat_n must_v not_o pass_v for_o glorious_a we_o will_v admit_v of_o that_o epithet_n and_o good_a author_n give_v we_o the_o reason_n how_o it_o come_v to_o be_v so_o which_o be_v not_o much_o to_o our_o purpose_n but_o for_o best_a we_o must_v examine_v that_o a_o little_a far_o i_o can_v cite_v many_o authority_n to_o prove_v that_o the_o roman_a commonwealth_n be_v one_o of_o the_o worst_a government_n that_o ever_o subsist_v so_o long_o but_o because_o i_o will_v speak_v somewhat_o to_o our_o noble_a venetian_a who_o ought_v to_o have_v read_v his_o own_o author_n concern_v government_n at_o home_n before_o he_o come_v to_o judge_v of_o another_o abroad_o i_o will_v refer_v he_o for_o full_a satisfaction_n in_o this_o point_n to_o the_o discorsi_n politici_fw-la of_o paulus_n paruta_n a_o nobleman_n and_o senator_n of_o venice_n and_o procurator_n of_o saint_n marco_n who_o in_o his_o first_o discourse_n compare_v several_a ancient_a commonwealth_n with_o that_o of_o venice_n when_o he_o come_v to_o rome_n he_o tell_v we_o plain_o that_o the_o sun_n never_o see_v a_o more_o confuse_a state_n that_o it_o be_v real_o no_o regular_a government_n at_o all_o and_o that_o its_o chief_a default_n proceed_v from_o the_o exorbitant_a power_n of_o the_o people_n whence_o tacitus_n call_v it_o lib._n 3._o corruptissima_fw-la respublica_fw-la now_o sir_n if_o this_o noble_a senator_n who_o also_o have_v be_v ambassador_n abroad_o understand_v any_o thing_n of_o government_n as_o i_o believe_v he_o do_v even_o more_o than_o the_o english_a gent._n young_a venetian_a and_o learned_a doctor_n put_v all_o together_o than_o we_o must_v conclude_v that_o our_o author_n be_v mistake_v but_o since_o it_o be_v not_o the_o first_o time_n we_o will_v put_v it_o to_o account_v mer._n well_o sir_n he_o say_v next_o p._n 52._o that_o moses_n theseus_n and_o romulus_n be_v founder_n of_o democracy_n what_o say_v you_o to_o that_o trau._n if_o i_o mistake_v not_o he_o tell_v we_o the_o same_o thing_n in_o p._n 28._o 32_o &_o 69._o in_o some_o of_o which_o he_o call_v their_o democracy_n in_o plain_a english_a a_o

they_o never_o do_v any_o one_o act_n which_o proceed_v from_o a_o right_n of_o power_n while_o moses_n live_v nay_o on_o the_o contrary_a when_o the_o seditious_a prince_n corah_n datban_n and_o
