    just the continuation of the monied monarchy. we have the solution.

    Nature created neither servant nor master;

    I seek neither to rule nor to serve.

    And its hands would weave the entrails of the priest,

    For the lack of a cord with which to strangle kings.

      had to look this up and french prose makes this difficult to understand; a paraphrase into english prose makes more sense:

      Men will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.
