Symzonia: Voyage of Discovery
·
Captain Adam Seaborn
121
When
the
sun
is
in
north
declination,
it
is
not
seen
at
all
to
the
south;
but
as
it
then
shines
into
the
north
polar
opening,
its
influence
is
felt
at
Symzonia
by
a
repeated
reflection,
and
being
aided
both
by
the
powerful
light
of
the
moon,
(which
always
fulls
in
high
south
declination,
when
the
sun
is
near
the
northern
tropic,
and
shines
directly
into
the
southern
opening,)
and
by
the
direct
and
reflected
light
of
the
planets
and
stars
of
the
southern
hemisphere,
gives
light
enough
for
all
necessary
purposes.
The
women
of
Symzonia
are
not
regarded
as
inferior
in
intellectual
capacity,
or
moral
worth,
to
the
other
sex.
The
female
character
is
there
respected,
for
the
qualities
of
the
female
mind
are
developed
and
employed.
Their
personal
beauty
exceeds
my
powers
of
description.
I
can
liken
their
complexion
to
nothing
but
alabaster
slightly
tinged
with
rose.
Compared
with
them
the
fairest
of
our
fair
are
dingy.
This
may
not
be
readily
credited
by
some
of
our
beauties;
but
they
have
only
to
place
themselves
near
the
alabaster
ornaments
in
their
drawing
rooms
to
realize
the
fact.
The
domestic
duties
of
the
Symzonian
women
are
very
simple,
pleasing,
and
easily
performed.
To
prepare
the
frugal
family
meal
requires
no
roasting
heat,
nor
black
array
of
pots,
kettles,
spits,
and
gridirons.
The
little
culinary
preparation
which
vegetables
and
fruits
require,
is
neatly
and
conveniently
done
in
silver
vessels;
for
silver
is
abundant,
and
well
adapted
for
utensils
for
household
use.
To
arrange
their
basins
of
milk
and
honey,
and
set
out
their
baskets
of
fruit
for
a
family
united
in
esteem
and
love,
is
a
pleasurable
exercise.
