Answer:

Sir Thomas Moore explained in Utopia that the dignity of the king does not lie in exercising authority over beggars. A real king is like a shepherd who looks after his flock.

Step-by-step explanation:

Moore believes that poverty of a kingdom does not safeguard peace. Infact, it creates chaos and make people eager for revolution. Such a king who tries to keep his people under subjection by reducing them to beggary shall resign. A real king shall be thoughtful of his people and keep them prosperous to exercise his majesty.
