Logic or Ethics Ch Summum bonum
1 §6 V Politicians
II Next come, in one set, your the class of Politicians and your
men Votaries of Ambition.
In Honour and in Power — in the one or the other
or in both or the summum bon do these men view place the their summum
bonum.
Language Reason or what is meant for
reason, meaning, as far as any such thing can be found much the same in this case as in the foregoing
one. Of Language, for that something more new might appear to be
said done — language, for ornament inter of this of the sort of
rayment thus made for nothingness a new change.
Riches were slippery and unstable. Honour and Power
are uncertain and deciduous: depending for the most part
on popular breath or simulated pretended favours: admodium
incerta et induca ...; atpot quie ex arbitrio popularis
aneris,[+] aut simulati hominum suoir, plerumque
"pendent".
[+] here we have
Horace here Horace
speaks with Horace
else
Riches — when it was of these that our alist had to speak Riches — it was not for their own sake, but for
the sake of other things that, according to him they were sought after.
Neither in Power Honour nor no, nor yet in Power — whatsoever the
man of politics or the man of ambition may think, is
there any intrinsic dignity: or if there be any of this
intrinsic dignity there be, none is there in either of them
of that any such sort of intrinsic dignity, which as can cause
them or either of them to be either desired, or
praised.
