Probably they will insist on the junction of Persia in the attack on Turkey, as the only satisfaction they can accept. It is just possible that the example once given, and the people despairing of pardon, a rising against the Russians may take place, and something of a national feeling arise in Persia. But I fear this will not be the case. I suppose our Minister was at Tabriz. April 15.
I have no wish to make more money out of the book, or to make it a very common popular work; and my feeling is that I should best consult my own dignity by leaving matters as they are, at any rate for the present.

The theory of these special societies which are formed concentrically, so to speak, by each of us inside of the main body gives the key to all the problems which arise from the opposition and conflict of the different varieties of social duty, problems upon which the ancient tragedies are based.
