not a cause of the prosperity,
but an obstacle
First as to the Monarch.
To shew in what way that portion of the power which
rests in the hands of the Monarch is contributory or conducive to has operated as a cause of the end
in question the good effect in question: is not possible: [to shew in what way it never has been so much as
attempted to shew in what way it has operated as an obstacle to that same good effect is easy.] His interest stands [plainly] in a state of undeniable
opposition to the universal interest. His interest is to have in
his own possession the the greatest quantity possible the greatest quantity
of those good things on the quantity of which the quantity of
happiness is generally understood to depend regarded as depending: and that therefore
in the hands, and for the use of those by whom those means of
happiness have been produced, there should remain the quantity remaining as small
a quantity of them as possible the quantity remaining unseized by them should at all
times be as small as possible
