v. 28. In the multitude of people is the king's honor, it serves for his glory, for the establishment of his name, if he reigns wisely and successfully over a large nation; but in the want of people is the destruction of the prince, where the people of a country are few and scattered on account of some weakness in the sovereign's rule, such a condition brings about the downfall of the ruler, his reign will soon come to an end.
