1821. April 27. First Lines Constitutional

Under an absolute Monarchy, the Constitutional
branch of the law has for its sole actual end, the greatest happiness
of the one individual by whom in whose hands, without division, the
whole of the supreme operative power is lodged.

For decentcy decency sake the end, thus actually and exclusively
pursued, is not the end professed and declared to be pursued. For the designations
of the end actually pursued, a mixt regard for decency and conciseness
substituted substitutes, on each occasion, one or another of a
small assortment of phrases: preservation of order, preservation of
legitimacy, for example.

Under a limited monarchy, the constitutional branch
of law has, for its actual object a more complex article object: viz.
the greatest happiness of the Monarch, coupled with, and limited by,
the greatest happiness of the conjunctly of subordinately ruling
few, by whose respective powers the limitations, such as they are,
that are applied to the power of the Monarch, are applied.
