Was it not declared that governments derive their just power from the consent of the governed?

难道不是宣布政府的正当权力来自被统治者的同意吗？

To all appearances a peaceful revolution had stripped the French king of his royal prerogatives and based the government of his country on the consent of the governed.

从表面上看，一场和平革命剥夺了法国国王的王室特权，并使他的国家的政府建立在被统治者的同意之上。

The Revolutionary fathers, in setting up their first state constitutions, although they often spoke of government as founded on the consent of the governed, did not think that consistency required giving the vote to all adult males.

——革命之父在制定他们的第一部州宪法时，虽然他们经常谈到政府是建立在被统治者同意的基础上， 但并不认为一致性需要让所有成年男性都有投票权。
