For commonwealths , and good governments , do nourish virtue grown , but do not much mend the seeds .
国家和好的政府培养美德，却不重视改善种子。
In some ancient commonwealths , where public debates were carried on by the people in a body , it was natural for the executive power to propose and debate in conjunction with the people , otherwise their resolutions must have been attended with a strange confusion .
