The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
107
The
Duchess
most
humbly
thank'd
her
Imperial
Majesty
for
her
kind
wishes;
but,
said
she,
Wishes
will
not
repair
his
ruins:
however,
God
has
given
my
Noble
Lord
and
Husband
great
Patience,
by
which
he
bears
all
his
losses
and
misfortunes.
As
last
they
enter'd
into
the
Duke's
House,
an
Habitation
not
so
magnificent
as
useful;
and
when
the
Empress
saw
it,
Has
the
Duke,
said
she,
no
other
House
but
this?
Yes,
answered
the
Duchess,
some
five
miles
from
this
place
he
has
a
very
fine
Castle
called
Bolesover.
That
place,
then,
said
the
Empress,
I
desire
to
see.
Alas,
replied
the
Duchess,
it
is
but
a
naked
House,
and
uncloath'd
of
all
Furniture.
However,
said
the
Empress,
I
may
see
the
manner
of
its
structure
and
building.
That
you
may,
replied
the
Duchess,
and
as
they
were
thus
discoursing,
the
Duke
came
out
of
the
House
into
the
Court,
to
see
his
Horses
of
Manage;
whom
when
the
Duchess's
Soul
perceived,
she
was
so
overjoyed,
that
her
Aereal
Vehicle
became
so
splendorous,
as
if
it
had
been
enlightned
by
the
Sun;
by
which
we
may
perceive,
that
the
passions
of
Souls
or
Spirits
can
alter
their
bodily
Vehicles.
Then
these
two
Ladies
Spirits
went
close
to
him,
but
he
could
not
perceive
them;
and
after
the
Empress
had
observed
that
Art
of
Mannage,
she
was
much
pleased
with
it,
and
commended
it
as
a
noble
pastime,
and
an
exercise
fit
and
proper
for
noble
and
heroick
Persons.
