There are situations in life where we are condemned to see evil done in all liberty, without being able to call for succour or complain. The Aristocratic Republic of Genoa Offends the King.

Both are injurious to society and themselves, and both are actuated by the came motives.

The man in armor, who rides before the Lord mayor, and is the city champion, has orders to cut down everybody that offends against the dignity of the city; and then there is the little man with a velvet porringer on his head, who sits at the window of the state-coach, and holds the city sword, as long as a pike-staff Odd's blood!
