will begin to establish themselves around and within him;
or the old laws be expanded, and interpreted in his favor
in a more liberal sense,
and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings.

inventiveness, and service that they contribute.
In this world-view, money that is spent
or given away returns multiplied.
