and
pusillanimous
counsels.

greatness
of an
estate in
bulk and
territory
doth fall
under
measure;
and the
greatness
of
finances
and
revenue
doth fall
under
computation.

population
may appear
by
musters;
and the
number and
greatness
of cities
and towns,
by cards
and maps.
But yet
there is
not
anything
amongst
civil
affairs
more
subject to
error,
than the
right
valuation
and true
judgement
concerning
the power
