Excerpt from Principles of Government Deduced From Reason, Supported by English Experience, and Opposed to French Errors
Go therefore thou with all thy flirting train, Of fwelling feicnces, the gifts of grief; Go loofe the links of that foul-binding chain, Enlarge this uaifitive belief Call up men's fpirits that {implenefs maintain, Enter their hearts, and knowledge make the thief, To open all the doors to let in light, That all may all things fee, but what is right.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins and principles of government, delving into historical precedents to trace its evolution and purpose. The author argues that government, a social necessity, is justified by the need to protect citizens from anarchy and that its authority is derived from the consent of the governed. The book underscores the importance of wise and just laws and discusses the need for a permanent legislative power to adapt to changing circumstances. It posits that in a complex society, it's impractical for all citizens to legislate and so representation is the best option for safeguarding the people's interests. By examining the relationship between rulers and the ruled and the balance of power between them, this book offers valuable insights into the foundations of political systems and the importance of good governance.
