Les sultans et les vizirs qui régissent ces sociétés, et qui constituent ce qu'on appelle en France le gouvernement, sont donc sérieusement des Haroun-al-Raschid et des Giaffar qui non seulement pardonnent à un empoisonneur, mais encore le font premier ministre si le crime a été ingénieux, et qui, dans ce cas, en font graver l'histoire en lettres d'or pour se divertir aux heures de leur ennui ?
