1808. About those who constitute the false spirituous fluids, and clog up the insides of the vessels and tissues

There are many, of both sexes, who had been of the kind in their lifetime that wherever they went, they would try artfully and deceptively to take control, almost unnoticeably subjecting people to themselves, especially the powerful and the rich, so that they alone might rule under their name. But they work clandestinely in a way that the powerful or wealthy person is unaware of it.
