Ransoming went
out when standing
armies came in.
This a service done
by standing armies
The war national
not personal – the
motives to war weakened
– and Soldiers
of fortune could
not yield such
ransom as Feudal
Barons & Knights

with weakness –
We have had him
to fight up against
Russia & the Austria

vulgar system.
How much Retort

the ballance of
power – If weak
they are a burthen
on you
