It is an ordinary little clock, which I got as a present about two years ago. The people who gave it to me told me it cost two and a half dollars, but on inquiry at the shop where it
was bought, I learned the real price was a dollar and ten cents. Up to this time, I had been
hesitating about buying a stand for it, but after that I determined not to do so.
Since I got the clock it has been on my desk, except once or twice when its loud tick
compelled me to wrap it up in a blanket and bury it in the bottom of a drawer. My clock
worked beautifully until one night, about two weeks ago, when it stopped. I wound it up
as far as was possible, but after going for an hour it stopped again. Then I shook it, and it
went for five minutes.

Read this paragraph from chapter 5 of the prince. there are, for example, the spartans and the romans. the spartans held athens and thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. the romans, in order to hold capua, carthage, and numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. they wished to hold greece as the spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. so to hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain them otherwise than by ruining them. and he who becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and does not destroy it, may expect to be destroyed by it, for in rebellion it has always the watchword of liberty and its ancient privileges as a rallying point, which neither time nor benefits will ever cause it to forget. and whatever you may do or provide against, they never forget that name or their privileges unless they are disunited or dispersed, but at every chance they immediately rally to them, as pisa after the hundred years she had been held in bondage by the florentines. what idea is stressed in the passage? the desire for liberty the establishment of an oligarchy the dismantling of an acquired state the tendency toward rebellion
