"Ἐμοὶ δοκέει ἕνα μὲν ἡμέων μούναρχον μηκέτι γενέσθαι · οὔτε γὰρ ἡδὺ οὔτε ἀγαθόν. Εἴδετε μὲν γὰρ τὴν Καμβύσεω ὕβριν ἐπ' ὅσον ἐπεξῆλθε, μετεσχήσατε δὲ καὶ τῆς τοῦ μάγου ὕβριος. Κῶς δ' ἂν εἴη χρῆμα κατηρτημένον μουναρχίη, τῇ exesti anefthynῳ poieein the Parliament? gar And if the excellent men everywhere Stada s taftin his empire than other eothoton stiseie meanings. Engignetai μὲν γάρ οἱ ὕβρις ὑπὸ τῶν παρεόντων ἀγαθῶν, φθόνος δὲ ἀρχῆθεν ἐμφύεται ἀνθρώπῳ. Δύο δ' ἔχων ταῦτα ἔχει πᾶσαν κακότητα· τὰ μὲν γὰρ ὕβρι κεκορημένος ἔρδει πολλὰ καὶ ἀτάσθαλα, τὰ δὲ φθόνῳ "
I do not think it is appropriate that we still have a king, because it is neither nice nor fair. Did you see that point came the insolence of Cambyses, and have also experienced that the Magician. How could it be a good thing the monarchy, without which no answer is given to do what he wants? Moreover it would make alien to common sense, even the best of all men, when he was in a similar state of power. This is because, due to the luck available to you develops in his arrogance, while in men it is usually present from birth is a natural envy. But when these two things - the arrogance and envy - converge in the same person, he is the source of all evil, so many insults does them full of pride, others because of envy.
