Traduction française
(48) To these forms of government—three in number, as I have said—are opposed 
three degenerate forms not based on law : The first is " tyranny," where one 
man's high-handed use of force is the ruin of the others. Next comes oligarchy, harsh 
and unjust, arising from the aggrandizement of a certain few wealthy rascals at the 
expense of the needy masses. 
The next in order is a motley impulsive mob of all sorts and conditions of men who 
know absolutely nothing but are always kept in a state of confusion and anger by 
unscrupulous demagogues, just as a wild rough sea is whipped this way and that by 
the fierce blasts.
