CCXII. (Book 212)

IT is not to be admir'd, that those Princes who are very powerful and have a numerous issue should have their thoughts much bent upon War; and that, either out of a motive of honour, or to make pro∣vision for their progeny, by Mili∣tary Employments, or forreign Go∣vernments, if they have Colonies in remote parts of the world; or lastly to prevent the disturbances which may be occasion'd by the dif∣ferent pretensions of younger Bro∣thers.
