Bacon had a high opinion of the political as well as the military wisdom of former times as compared with latter times. See Introduction, p. lxxxiii., for the 'lost wisdom' of policy. See also Essay xxix. U. 297-315. 48 masteries: 'To try who shall be master, i.e. who is the stronger, oneself or fortune.' 54 Tacitus: 'The desires of kings are mostly vehement and incompatible with one another.' Sallust (not Tacitus), Jugurihine War, ch. 113, loosely quoted. P. 65. 56 Power: 'It is the characteristic absurdity and mistake of despotic power to,' &c. The Lat. has 'nimiae potential,' 'too great power.' Cicero uses the word solecism in a similar way. 'It is a solecism,' he says, 'to laud tyrant-slayers to the skies, and yet to retain the acts of tyrants.' The word originally meant an absurd linguistic mistake; hence an absurd mistake of any kind. The old derivation connected it with the supposed provincialism of some Greek colonists at Soli in Cilicia. Aristotle uses it of bad taste. 60 Second nobles: So in Life, vi. 112, the gentry are distinguished from the peers, and called 'second nobles.' 67 Embracing-: Lat. 'attrahendo,' drawing to themselves. 68 Approaches: (since it is distinguished from 'increase of territory') would appear to mean 'approaching the frontier with an army,' or 'fortifying towns on the frontier.' 77 Interest: i.e. 'Borrow immediate peace at the cost of great ultimate loss.' This passage is found nearly word for word in Life, vol. vii. 477, Considerations touching a war with Spain, 1624 A.D. 78 Leagtie: In 1480 A.D. 82 Schoolmen: See Essay xvii. 27. 88 Unsound: Augustus.
