for the due discharge of every obliga on the part of the agent or agents in question any object for the due accomplishment of every purpose whatsoever
and in particular for the due discharge of every political
obligation, and therein for the due exercise execution fulfilment of every public
trust – an appropriate will and appropriate power.

good government government: ☞ add – and so as to qualification
