The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
133
But
after
a
short
time,
those
Neighbouring
Nations
finding
themselves
so
much
inslaved,
that
they
were
hardly
able
to
peep
out
of
their
own
Dominions
without
a
chargeable
Tribute,
they
all
agreed
to
join
again
their
Forces
against
the
King
and
soveraign
of
the
said
Dominions;
which
when
the
Empress
receiv'd
notice
of,
she
sent
out
her
Fish-men
to
destroy,
as
they
had
done
before,
the
remainder
of
all
their
Naval
Power,
by
which
they
were
soon
forced
again
to
submit,
except
some
Nations
which
could
live
without
Foreign
Traffick,
and
some
whose
Trade
and
Traffick
was
meerly
by
Land;
these
would
no
ways
be
Tributary
to
the
mentioned
King.
The
Empress
sent
them
word,
That
in
case
they
did
not
submit
to
him,
she
intended
to
fire
all
their
Towns
and
Cities,
and
reduce
them
by
force,
to
what
they
would
not
yield
with
a
good
will.
But
they
rejected
and
scorned
her
Majesties
Message,
which
provoked
her
anger
so
much,
that
she
resolved
to
send
her
Bird-
and
Worm
men
thither,
with
order
to
begin
first
with
their
smaller
Towns,
and
set
them
on
fire
(for
she
was
loath
to
make
more
spoil
then
she
was
forced
to
do)
and
if
they
remain'd
still
obstinate
in
their
resolutions,
to
destroy
also
their
greater
Cities.
The
onely
difficulty
was,
how
to
convey
the
Worm-men
conveniently
to
those
places;
but
they
desired
that
her
Majesty
would
but
set
them
upon
any
part
of
the
Earth
of
those
Nations,
and
they
could
travel
within
the
Earth
as
easily,
and
as
nimbly
as
men
upon
the
face
of
the
Earth;
which
the
Empress
did
according
to
their
desire.
