Constitut. Code
Sir his casting worth
The mariner how he sullied forth
§. Impurity – its instruments – corporeal and incorporeal
Seen above the frame of mind given to man by this that situation:
behold him now in action seen him above in disposition – in preparation.
Behold him now in preparation action. In the field of society
of social political life action can not be without instruments. Behold
now his instruments.
Instruments real and corporeal and real, three: the Soldier, the
Lawyer, Priest: instruments factitious and incorporeal and nominal
four: force, fear terror, corruption, delusion: these with their
incorporeal instruments, he the one by the hands of his corporeal
instruments works.
By producing day by day For the sake of an always
questionable and at the utmost imponderable and comparatively inconsiderable
addition to his own felicity, to produce
give existence unquestionable existence to human misery suffering
in all its shapes and infinite in quantity immense and
indefinite this is that the course of action which at every moment of his life
the sinister interest inseparably attached to his situation
prompts urges him to: and power being in adequate quantity
always in his hands, such this sully as which has been mentioned correspondent is the result.
Their felicity being by their situations dependent on his
will, such as his interests are such theirs. By his
interest he is rendered the implacable enemy of all who
are subject to his power: his interest being made theirs
people find these too added: the numbers of their enemies
in those the people so many subordinate enemies
whose function consists in giving accomplishment
to the inimical wishes of the mock-enemy.
Fear. Synonyms, terror – intimidation.
