The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
109
Then
the
Conversation
of
these
three
souls
was
so
pleasant,
that
it
cannot
be
expressed;
for
the
Duke's
Soul
entertained
the
Empress's
Soul
with
Scenes,
songs,
Musick,
witty
Discourses,
pleasant
Recreations,
and
all
kinds
of
harmless
sports,
so
that
the
time
passed
away
faster
than
they
expected.
At
last
a
Spirit
came
and
told
the
Empress,
That
although
neither
the
Emperor
nor
any
of
his
Subjects
knew
that
her
Soul
was
absent;
yet
the
Emperor's
Soul
was
so
sad
and
melancholy
for
want
of
His
own
beloved
Soul,
that
all
the
Imperial
Court
took
notice
of
it.
Wherefore
he
advised
the
Empress's
Soul
to
return
into
the
Blazing-World,
into
her
own
Body
she
left
there;
which
both
the
Duke's
and
Duchess's
Soul
was
very
sorry
for,
and
wished
that,
if
it
had
been
possible,
the
Empress's
Soul
might
have
stayed
a
longer
time
with
them;
but
seeing
it
could
not
be
otherwise,
they
pacified
themselves.
But
before
the
Empress
returned
into
the
Blazing-World,
the
Duchess
desired
a
Favour
of
her,
to
wit,
That
she
would
be
pleased
to
make
an
Agreement
between
her
Noble
Lord,
and
Fortune.
Why,
said
the
Empress,
are
they
Enemies?
Yes,
answered
the
Duchess,
and
they
have
been
so
ever
since
I
have
been
his
Wife:
nay,
I
have
heard
my
Lord
say,
That
she
hath
crossed
him
in
all
things,
ever
since
he
could
remember.
