Such was the state in which we left Europe at the close of the four* teenth century. Europe, however, was then very far from understanding her own state, such as I have now endeavoured to explain it to you. She did not know distinctly what she required) or what she was in search of. Yet she set about endea* vouring to supply her wants as if she- knew perfectly what they were. When the fourteenth* century had* expired; after the failure of every attempt at political organization, Europe entered ...naturaHy, »n}, as if by instinct, into the path of centralization. It is the characteristic of the fif- teenth century that it constantly tended to this result, that it endeavoured to create general interests and general ideas, to raise the minds of men to more enlarged views, and to create, in short, what had not, till then, existed on a great scale — ^nations and governments. The actual accomplishment of this change belongs to the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, though it was in the fifteenth that it was prepared.
