Spaniards! You have your Tories: You have your Whigs. Your Tories are your beloveds late advisers; Your Whigs are his present ones. Your late rulers extracted from /out of/ you of the external instruments of felicity as much as they could for themselves: your other rulers present and future to the end of time your other rulers who ever they are will follow that example. They will not perhaps extract from you quite so much as was extracted from you by your former rulers, for perhaps /because/ it may not be in their power: but still whatsoever it appears to them that it is in their power to extract, they will endeavour to extract: this /thus/ who ever they are they will do if they are men.
