Tit. B. &c.
High Court I do not like a Court that is dependent upon
nobody: a Court that is dependent upon nobody
is dependent upon its own passions and caprice.
Depe Independence may makes virtue as towards
this is that man or body of men : but it is
dependence that makes virtue as towards the
body of the people .
I see the root of the error : I am already
treading on it. It has in received theories and
current nomenclature and the current nomenclature
which is the result and support
preservative
values of these theories . My preservative efficient
cause of a good constitution and antidote against
arbitrary power is very simple: it is
the dependence of all magistracy upon the body
of the people . The current theories place it in
the devision of power . The current nomenclature
accordingly divides power into legislative
and executive or into legislative administrative
and judicial : no two of these branches
of power says the theory , nor any thing that
belongs to either of them ought to be in the same
hand . This is the old Roman and Machiavellian principle.
