when they have the true king'y and priest
Iy nature, have no more right TO wear their
heads than they have 10 wear crown and
mtres. But democracy has changed it's
character. The democrat Of to day is not
destructive; he does moi lop off the heads
of kings and priests, but he seeks 10 arrive
a: equality by making every man king.

nobility is not brough, out, the mass of
men are not true men, but something less
than men; and he sets himself seriously at
work to remove all obstacles 10 the full
development of the true men, and TO call
forth from the might which has for SO
