a fair amount of moderation in the opposite direction—this modern
Englishman; he has learned caution of other kind, which his ancestors                  【S9】________
taught him. "Power should be used with moderation; for whoever finds
himself among valiant men will discover that no man is superior than others."          【S10】________ [br] 【S8】
