to find an answer to the above question, it is to this the

power of the people should have be balanced means
that A balance is a machine composed of two
beams or scales suspended from a beam resting on the one part of its
middle length commonly the middle upon an immoveable
point called a fulcrum or pivot. That
If no weight be on either scale such in this construction
they will hang both of them upon a level,
if a the weight be then placed on either that one on which
it is placed will descend to a certain point and the other scale ascend: if an
equal weight be then placed on the other elevated
scale that scale will descend, and the two scales
will occupy the same level as before: in this case
as the without a weight on either the two scales were
said to balance each other, so will they with a two
weights they being equal weights – one on each.
