To these provisions he was willing to add any others which, after ripe deliberation, might be thought beneficial to the country.
Thus limited were his executive functions.

As to his judicial authority it had ceased to exist.

The Count of Holland was now the guardian of the laws, but the judges were to administer them.

He held the sword of justice to protect and to execute, while the scales were left in the hands which had learned to weigh and to measure.

He was strictly prohibited from interfering with the right of the separate or the general states to assemble as often as they should think proper; and he was also forbidden to summon them outside their own territory.
