"See how I would do. I would fix a reasonable rate within the

ability of every one; then bread should be distributed according

to the number of mouths, because there are gluttons who seize all

they can get for themselves, and leave the poor still in want. We

must then divide it. And how shall we do this? Why in this way.

much bread at such a price. But the thing must be done in order,

always with regard to the number of mouths. For instance, they

should give you a ticket for-your name?"
