If however the Septemvirate see their advantage in so doing
or think they can not hep help it, they will cause or suffer
the Cortes to meet again on the 1st of March, choosing rather to
violate the Code in that way thereby not causing or suffering the
assembly to meet before the 9th of July. But supposing it
to meet the 1st of next March, then at the latest it must
break up and be dissolved by the 1st of July 1821. Now suppose
A Code of laws and that for a not the draughtsmans
not be made to a and delivered in Spain either in Spanish
or in English by a given day as an equal quantity
of letterpress might if copied from an already existing
Code. Suppose a Code of any drawing delivered at Madrid
on the 2d of July 1820 and not before. The Cortes is then
broken dissolved: and by the suicidal article Article 110
if all the Members by whose approbation I was encouraged by the supposition
to undertake the work not one can be there to receive it. Then the
Should any such Assembly as a Cortes be thereafter in existence
– (and I wish heartily the affirmative may be were
better assured than to me it appears to be) there my Code
it if ever reaches the Table, lies upon the Table, and nobody
present knows or cares anything about the matter: thus
it fares with the Code, and in his own country the author
of who becomes a laughing stock to those the Serviles
whom he has so long been combating.
The Cortes alas! is an impermanent ever-changing and
precariously existing body. The King is an everlasting
and immutable body.
