Footnotes:
[1] I will not swear to the very _words_; but this is the meaning of
Voltaire: "Representatives of the people, the Lords and the King:
_Magnificent_ spectacle! _Sacred_ source of the Laws!"
[2] "Representatives of the people, of whom the people know nothing,
must be miraculously well calculated to have the care of their money!
Oh! People too happy! overwhelmed with blessings! The _envy_ of _your
neighbours_, and _admired_ by the _whole world_!"
