Candide asked to see the High Court of justice, the Parliament; but was answered that they had none in that country, being utter strangers to lawsuits. He then inquired if they had any prisons; they replied none. But what gave him at once the greatest surprise and pleasure was the Palace of Sciences, where he saw a gallery two thousand feet long, filled with the various apparatus in mathematics and natural philosophy.
Quiso Candido ver la sala del crimen y el tribunal, y le dixéron que no los habia, porque ninguno litigaba: se informó si habia cárcel, y le fué dicho que no; pero lo que mas extrañó y mas satisfaccion le causó, fué el palacio de las ciencias, donde vió una galería de dos mil pasos, llena toda de instrumentos de física y matemáticas.
