The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
103
'Tis
true,
said
the
Duchess;
but
if
it
pleases
your
Majesty,
we
will
go
into
that
part
of
the
World
whence
I
came
to
wait
on
your
Majesty,
and
there
you
shall
see
as
powerful
a
Monarch
as
the
Grand
Signior;
for
though
his
Dominions
are
not
of
so
large
extent,
yet
they
are
much
stronger,
his
Laws
are
easie
and
safe,
and
he
governs
so
justly
and
wisely,
that
his
Subjects
are
the
happiest
people
of
all
the
Nations
or
parts
of
that
World.
This
Monarch,
said
the
Empress,
I
have
a
great
mind
to
see.
Then
they
both
went,
and
in
a
short
time
arrived
into
his
Dominions;
but
coming
into
the
Metropolitan
City,
the
Empress's
Soul
observed
many
Gallants
go
into
an
House;
and
enquiring
of
the
Duchess's
Soul,
what
House
that
was?
she
told
her,
It
was
one
of
the
Theatres
where
Comedies
and
Tragedies
were
acted.
The
Empress
asked,
Whether
they
were
real?
No,
said
the
Duchess,
they
are
feigned.
Then
the
Empress
desired
to
enter
into
the
Theatre;
and
when
she
had
seen
the
Play
that
was
asked,
the
Duchess
asked
her
how
she
liked
that
Recreation?
