Administration of government
"Reason always practises non-assertion, and there is nothing that remains undone. If princes and kings could keep Reason, the ten thousand things would of themselves be reformed. While being reformed they would yet be anxious to stir ; but I would restrain them by the simplicity of the Ineffable. The simplicity of the unexpressed Will purify the heart of lust. Where there's no lust there will be rest, And all the world will thus be blest."
