My Seat Has Been The Seat Of

Brass Shines As Fair To The Ignorant As Gold To The Goldsmiths.

We Princes Are Set As It Were Upon Stages, In The Sight And View Of All The World. The Least Spot Is Soon Spied In Our Garments, A Blemish Quickly Noticed In Our Doings.

He Who Placed Me In This Seat Will Keep Me Here.

Those Who Appear The Most Sanctified Are The Worst

For, What Is A Family Without A Steward, A Ship Without A Pilot, A Flock Without A Shepherd, A Body Without A Head, The Same, I Think, Is A Kingdom Without The Health And Safety Of A Good Monarch.
