In the publishing of a treatise on the art of war, a the
man to whom it should seem worth his while to lay claim to the
praise of probity, to defend himself against the imputation on the score of improbity
man may have this to say for himself, that though
when once abroad, all nations political states without distinction
foreign nations as well as his own,
hostile as well as friendly will have it find it equally in their power
to apply to practice whatsoever instruction it may
be found to afford, yet his own is the state country in the state of which he is a subject
which, if there be any thing in it capable of producing being
an effect put to use, it is most likely to be put to use

case of an any invention which as the is the case if with most
inventions, is lies open to imitation, whatsoever profit advantage
may be capable of being made derived from it will depend
upon priority, thence so it is that in proportion proportioned to
the opinion which he has of its efficiency, will naturally
be his expectation of seeing its whatsoever advantage
is capable of being reaped from it, reaped
by his own country, if not absolutely to the exclusion
of every other, at any rate in a greater proportion
than by any other.
