necessary external means of information being supposed equal.
3. So in the scale of appropriate active aptitude.
4 On all three accounts taken together, the place of the absolute
Monarch will in the aggregate scale of the three scales of appropriate
aptitude, be naturally lower than that of the be
individual at the lowest degree point.
5. The place of the limited Monarch will naturally
be at a point less next above that of the absolute Monarch
higher than that of a limited Monarchy, it will be but below that of a member of a purely Aristocratical government.

6. Among th Limited Monarchy the place of each one
in the aggregate scale of appropriate aptitude will be inversely
as his attitude in the scale of prosperity, and in particular

the quantity substracted from his power by the aggregate of the
limitations annexed applying to it.
