RABBLE

[/ˈræbəl/]

Definition

In a republic, those who exercise a supreme authority tempered by fraudulent elections.
The rabble is like the sacred Simurgh, of Arabian fable—omnipotent on condition that it do nothing.
(The word is Aristocratese, and has no exact equivalent in our tongue, but means, as nearly as may be, "soaring swine.")
