(48) To these forms of governmentthree in number, as I have saidare 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.
