a mere artificiality, and so a king's feelings, like the
impulses of an automatic doll, are mere artificialities;
but as a man, he is a reality, and his feelings, as a

man to be valued below his own estimate of his worth,
and the king certainly wasn't anything more than an
average man, if he was up that high.
