Supposedly the original Chapter 13 was never translated in the English reprints. Using Goog le Translate, it seems like a reasonable rendition. 
Monarchy is the ideal form of governance.
Near the end the author says: DO NO TRUST THE GOVERNMENTS!

El liberalismo es Pecado, by D. Felix Sarda y Salvany
1887 A.D. 6th Edition.
Original Chapter 13.

Notes and Comments on the Doctrine Set Forth in the Previous Chapter
    We have said that democratic or popular forms, pure or mixed, are not 'ex se'  liberal, and we believe we have sufficiently proven this. However, this, which is true 'speculatively' speaking, that is to say in the abstract, is true; it is not so much so in customary practice, that is to say in the 'order of facts', to which the Catholic propagandist must always be principally attentive.
    In fact, although, considered in themselves, such forms of government are not liberal, they are so in our century; since the modern Revolution, which is nothing other than Liberalism in action, presents them to us only on the basis of its erroneous doctrines. Thus, the vulgar, who understand little of distinctions, very wisely call Liberalism everything that is presented to them in our days as a democratic reform in the government of nations; because, even if by the natural essence of ideas it is not, in fact, it is.

    And therefore our fathers reasoned with singular wisdom and correctness when they rejected the constitutional or representative form as contrary to their faith, preferring the pure monarchy that in the last centuries was the government of Spain. Because a certain natural instinct told even the least informed that the new political forms, in themselves harmless as such forms, were impregnated with the liberal heretical principle, so they did very well to call them liberal; in the same way that the pure monarchy, which in itself could be very impious and even heretical, was presented to them as an essentially Catholic form, since for many centuries the people had been receiving it informed by the spirit of Catholicism.
  Our royalists were therefore wrong, ideologically speaking, when they identified Religion with the old political regime, and considered the constitutionalists impious; but they were right, practically speaking, because in what they wanted to present to them as a mere indifferent political form, they saw, with the clear instinct of faith, the liberal idea involved. This is without taking into account that the chorus and sectarians of the liberal faction did everything possible, with blasphemies and attacks, so that the true people would not ignore the meaning of their odious flag.

    Nor is it strictly true that political forms are indifferent to Religion, although the latter accepts them all. The healthy philosopher studies and analyzes them, and without condemning any, he does not fail to manifest preference for those that most safeguard the principle of authority, which is based mainly on unity. With which it is said that the most perfect form of all is the monarchy, which is the one that most resembles the government of God and the Church. Just as the most imperfect is the republic for the opposite reason. The monarchy demands the virtue of a single man, and the republic demands the virtue of the majority of citizens. Therefore, logically speaking, the republican ideal is more unrealizable than the monarchical ideal. The latter is more humane than the former, because it demands less human perfection and is more suited to the rudeness and vices of the generality.
    But for the Catholic of our century, the greatest of all reasons for warning against popular governments must be the constant eagerness with which Masonry has tried to establish (implant) them everywhere. By a marvelous intuition, hell has known that these were the systems that best conducted its electricity, and that none could serve it better to its liking. It is therefore unquestionable that a Catholic must regard as suspicious everything that the Revolution preaches to him as more suited to his aims in this regard; and that, therefore, everything that the Revolution cherishes and proclaims under the name of Liberalism, it will do well to regard as such Liberalism, even if it is only a question of forms. For such forms are in this case nothing more than the container or wrapping with which Satan's contraband is to be admitted into the home.
