The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
110
I
am
sorry
for
that,
replied
the
Empress;
but
I
cannot
discourse
with
Fortune,
without
the
help
of
an
Immaterial
Spirit,
and
that
cannot
be
done
in
this
World;
for
I
have
no
Fly
nor
Bird-men
here,
to
send
into
the
Region
of
the
Air,
where,
for
the
most
part,
their
Habitations
are.
The
Duchess
said,
she
would
entreat
her
Lord
to
send
an
Attorney
or
Lawyer
to
plead
his
Cause.
Fortune
will
bribe
them,
replied
the
Empress,
and
so
the
Duke
may
chance
to
be
cast:
Wherefore
the
best
way
will
be,
for
the
Duke
to
chuse
a
Friend
on
his
side,
and
let
Fortune
chuse
another,
and
try
whether
by
this
means
it
be
possible
to
compose
the
Difference.
The
Duchess
said,
They
will
never
come
to
an
agreement,
unless
there
be
a
Judg
or
Umpire
to
decide
the
Case.
A
Judg,
replied
the
Empress,
is
easie
to
be
had;
but
to
get
an
Impartial
Judg,
is
a
thing
so
difficult,
that
I
doubt
we
shall
hardly
find
one;
for
there
is
none
to
be
had,
neither
in
Nature,
nor
in
Hell,
but
onely
from
Heaven;
and
how
to
get
such
a
Divine
and
Celestial
Judg,
I
cannot
tell:
Nevertheless,
if
you
will
go
along
with
me
into
the
Blazing-World,
I'le
try
what
may
be
done.
'Tis
my
duty,
said
the
Duchess,
to
wait
on
your
Majesty,
and
I
shall
most
willingly
do
it,
for
I
have
no
other
interest
to
consider.
