Constitut. Code
To the situation of Monarch it belongs to find will: to the
situation of Minister it belongs to find knowledge, to find judgement
and if need be to find invention, such as shall
on each occasion shall be necessary and sufficient to be
given effect accomplishment to that will. But to do so requires a degree
of exertion of mental labour therein much beyond the greatest
quantity which in the situation of Monarch it is badness
the expectation of it, is consistent with human nature to bestow: this being the case admitted
it follows that by from no stock of knowledge appropriate knowledge which
in the situation of Monarch the minds of men is capable of possessing finding room for
can the stock mass which will be applied to the business of
government receive increase.
