Good King and the love of governance in history
The text argues that royal happiness lies in benevolence toward subjects, not conquest or luxury. It contrasts the misery of despots with the virtuous rule of a good king, who earns loyalty by beneficence, moderation, and inspiring love rather than fear. A wise ruler gains public affection, reforms faults with lenity, and rewards merit to sustain liberty and prosperity.
