A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Suit an Selim inscribed upon the door of his Palace at A drianople, these words: Oye who come here for judgment; if justice be not done to yo Uy1 absolve you from your allegiance to w. A cruel tyranny bathed in the blood of their Emperors on every succession; a heap of vassals and slaves; no nobles no gentlemen no freemen no inheritance of land no stirp of ancient families ;a people that is without natural affection, and as the Scripture saithy that regar deth not the desires of women and without piety or care towards their children without morality, without letters, arts, or sciences ;that can scarce measure an acre of land or an hour of the day ;base and sluttish in buildings, diets, and the like ;and, in a word, a very reproach of human society ;and yet this nation hath made the garden of the world a wilderness, for that, as is truly said concerning the Turks, where Ottoman shorse sets his foot people will come up very thin Francis Bacon.
