10803. The monarch who considers the laws to be superior to himself, and so himself to be subject to them, deems monarchy to reside in the law; and the law holds sway over him. He knows that the law embodies what is right and just and that all righteousness or justice which is truly such is Divine. But the one who considers the laws to be subject to himself, and so himself to be superior to them, deems monarchy to reside in himself and thinks either that he himself is the law or that he is the author of the justice embodied in it. As a result he arrogates to himself what is Divine, when yet he ought to be subject to it.
