The constitution was to them , in the quaint language of George the Third , " the most perfect of human formations " ; 3 it was to them not a mere polity to be compared with the government of any other state , but so to speak a sacred mystery of statesmanship ; it " had ( as we have all heard from our youth up ) not been made but had grown " ; it was the fruit not of abstract theory but of that instinct which ( it is supposed ) has enabled Englishmen , and especially uncivilised Englishmen , to build up sound and lasting institutions , much as bees construct a honeycomb , without undergoing the degradation of understanding the principles on which they raise a fabric more subtlely wrought than any work of conscious art . We know further that party government , which to many among the wisest of modern constitutionalists appears to be the essence of England 's far-famed constitution , inevitably gives rise to partisanship , and at last produces a machine which may well lead to political corruption and may , when this evil is escaped , lead to the strange but acknowledged result that a not unfairly elected legislature may misrepresent the permanent will of the electors .
