Constitut. Code

In a limited or say a mixt Monarchy in so far as one who
a man, who to a greater or less amount is a sharer
with the Monarch in the of rule, regards himself
as being exposed to present danger from the power of the Monarch
he will, in the view of providing security to
himself from such danger be disposed inclined to look for eventual
support from the people the greatest number, and thence if necessary in that same view
to make sacrifice, to a greater or less amount to make
sacrifice of his particular and sinister interest to the
such his share in the universal interest. The greater the external
estimated danger The greater succeeding in his estimate
the danger, the greater, if any, will be the consequent sacrifice thus made
in consequence, but without the or beyond the estimated
danger there will be no such sacrifice.

The consequence is that on the part of the rulers in he breasts of the ruling few the
effect of every the limitation to the power of the Monarch is to add corruption
and breach of trust trust-breaking and consequent insincerity to that the stock of depravity to which
unlimited Monarchy gives birth. But Still, as the no limitation can have place
without bringing into action the tutelary power authority of the Public Opinion
Tribunal, and as since the defalcation from the mass of misrule and
consequent misery is as the form with which that tutelary power
acts, that it is, that f though in the shape in question in a limited Monarchy though there
is more vice than in an absolute Monarchy, there is less unhappiness.
But in

But in every limited Monarchy, the effect of the limitation
whatever they are is growing continually less and less, till at
last they it vanishes altogether unless and until by the encrease of inextinguishable light, a universal defection ensues and the Monarchy gives way <add>place to a Commonwealth,</add> and, with or without the forms of limitation
the once limited is converted into an absolute Monarchy: for, as above the
form of the instrument by
which the of conversion is continually constantly and necessarily at all times on the encrease.
