"Oh, the same princess Pride rules them both," answered the angel, -- "this young man is only speaking fair on account of the errand he comes upon; he is seeking popularity at present, with the intent to raise himself thereby to the highest office in the kingdom -- it is easy for him to lament to the people how much they are wronged by the oppression of bad masters; but his own exaltment, and not the weal of the kingdom, is the heart of the matter."
The Sleeping Bard or, Visions of the World, Death, and Hell Ellis Wynne 1702
