Pàgina 289 - WHAT CONSTITUTES A STATE? What constitutes a state ? Not high-raised battlement or labored mound, Thick wall, or moated gate ; Not cities proud, with spires and turrets crowned ; Not bays and broad-armed ports, Where, laughing at the storm, rich navies ride ; Not starred and spangled courts, Where low-born baseness wafts perfume to pride.
