The authority of an Arabian scherif is very great; that of a Tartar khan altogether despotical.

阿拉伯谢里夫的权威性非常高； 完全专制的鞑靼可汗。

Such a council can command obedience only by the military force with which they are accompanied; and their government is, therefore, necessarily military and despotical.

这样的议会只能服从与他们同行的军队；因此，他们的政府必然是军事的和专制的。
