Ch. IV. Sovereignty in whom
A Monarch, any more
than another man,
can not, on an enlarged
scale, act without
instruments.
Instruments of action
may be divided into
corporeal and incorporeal.
Corporeal are either
persons or things.
INcorporeal ones
reducible to these.
1. Physical force.
2. Intimidation.
3. Remuneration.
4. Corruption.
5. Delusion.
It is by these incorporeal
instruments that
he acts on man, and
makes them his corporeal
instruments.
In proportion as he
employs these his
incorporeal upon his
human corporeal
instruments, he encreases
this moral inaptitude
in himself, and
produces it in them.
Thus it is in the case
of corruption and
delusion. Physical force,
intimidation and
remuneration are
necessary instruments
of government, in whatever
hands lodged.
Corruption means
nothing more than either
intimidation or
remuneration, but more frequently
