Reseña del editor:

Nature never suffers the things of this world to come to a stay, so soon as they reach their ultimate perfection, there being nothing higher to which they can mount, they must needs descend; and, in like manner, when, in their downward course they have reached, through their disorders, their lowest point of degradation, since then they can descend no lower, they must needs rise. And always in this way from good we descend to evil, and from evil mount to good. For valour begets tranquillity, tranquillity ease, ease disorder, and disorder ruin.
