If by giv given in waste spent in waste be meant spent
without effect – in this country under this constitution nothing, that is bestowed by a royal
hand, – ever is – ever can be, – bestowe spent in waste.
A King of England is like the fortunate King of : is so
fortunate – he tried to throw away his money treasure and could
not succeed: a fish swallowed it and a fisherman brought
it him back again. It is by this throwing away
money that is in appearance but an appearance only
that a King of England becomes – not like like the
fisherman in of Periallus fishes of rouge, but a fisher of men.
Whatsoever is given in waste – given without an equivalent
in the shape of public service, produces is when
given by that hand given with effect and that
effect most mischievous. In parliament as well as everywhere
else its effect is it has for its effect obsequiousness as towards
the will of him from whom it the gift comes. Everywhere
else as towards that will everywhere else obsequiousness is
everywhere but in parliament if or with if elsewhere
with reference to parliamentary conduct, if not meritorious,
at least innoxious: but in parliament,⊞ ⊞ on the part of a member, or act of parliament, on the part of a parliamentary Elector obsequiousness
towards the result of real or supposed
of that will in relation to parliamentary conduct
is neither more nor less than corrupt influence
and breach of trust.
