text_original: But because ambition and greediness of honours cannot be rooted out of the minds of men, it is not the duty of rulers to endeavour it ; but by constant application of rewards and punishments they may so order it, that men may know that the way to honour is not by contempt of the present govern  ment, nor by factions and the popular air, but by the contraries. They are good men who observe the decrees, the laws, and rights of their fathers.
