And all along the Forum, and up the Sacred Street,
His vulture eye pursued the trip of those small

Now as he was leaning back one
day on his couch, with a stick in his hand, and the jar suspended
over his head, he thought of the high price of butter and honey,
and said to himself, 'I will sell what is in the jar, and buy with the
money which I obtain for it ten goats; which
producing
each of them
a young one every five months, in addition to the produce of the
kids as soon as they begin to bear, it will not be long before there is
a great flock.

It is that
corruption,
introduced
by certain immethodical aphorisming eclectics,
who, dismissing not only all system, but all logical connection, pick
and choose whatever is most plausible and showy; who select, whatever
words can have some semblance of sense attached to them without the
least expenditure of thought; in short whatever may enable men to talk
of what they do not understand, with a careful avoidance of every thing
that might awaken them to a moment's suspicion of their ignorance.

| Question: |
What country is the author talking about directly, or indirectly by virtue of being from that country? |
| Answer: |
Samuel Coleridge is the author this book called BIOGRAPHIA LITERATIA (1817). He was from England. He is not talking about the corruption in a country (England), rather he is talking about a popular philosophy and its effect on language. Nonetheless, this could in turn have consequences for corruption in England, at large. The central component of [political] corruption is thus manifest in language, which is rooted in ideology. Every aspect of a human's being, including his/her utterances, then conforms to a system of fear of his fellow men. Humans are not free from punishment structures posed by ideology (in this case, popular philosophy). This would fit with Christian Pecaut's worldview. The popular philosophy seems to be anti-Christian metaphysics. |

You have a mouth for loving--listen then:
Keep tryst with Love before Death comes to tryst;
For I, who die, could wish that I had lived
A little closer to the world of men,
Not
watching
always thro' the blazoned panes
That show the world in chilly greens and blues
And grudge the sunshine that would enter in.
