The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
108
But
when
the
Duke
was
gone
into
the
house
again,
those
two
Souls
followed
him;
where
the
Empress
observing,
that
he
went
to
the
exercise
of
the
sword,
and
was
such
an
excellent
and
unparallel'd
Master
thereof,
she
was
as
much
pleased
with
that
exercise,
as
she
was
with
the
former:
But
the
Duchess's
Soul
being
troubled,
that
her
dear
Lord
and
Husband
used
such
a
violent
exercise
before
meat,
for
fear
of
overheating
himself,
without
any
consideration
of
the
Empress's
Soul,
left
her
Æreal
Vehicle,
and
entred
into
her
Lord.
The
Empress's
Soul
perceiving
this,
did
the
like:
And
then
the
Duke
had
three
Souls
in
one
Body;
and
had
there
been
some
such
Souls
more,
the
Duke
would
have
been
like
the
Grand-Signior
in
his
Seraglio,
onely
it
would
have
been
a
Platonick
Seraglio.
But
the
Duke's
Soul
being
wise,
honest,
witty,
complaisant
and
noble,
afforded
such
delight
and
pleasure
to
the
Empress's
Soul
by
his
conversation,
that
these
two
souls
became
enamoured
of
each
other;
which
the
Duchess's
soul
perceiving,
grew
jealous
at
first,
but
then
considering
that
no
Adultery
could
be
committed
amongst
Platonick
Lovers,
and
that
Platonism,
was
Divine,
as
being
derived
from
Divine
Plato,
cast
forth
of
her
mind
that
Idea
of
Jealousie.
