The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
138
Great,
Heroick,
and
Famous
Monarchs,
I
come
hither
to
assist
the
King
of
Esfi
against
his
Enemies,
He
being
unjustly
assaulted
by
many
several
Nations,
which
would
fain
take
away
His
Hereditary
Rights,
and
Prerogatives
of
the
Narrow
Seas;
at
which
Unjustice,
Heaven
was
much
displeased,
and
for
the
Injuries
He
received
from
His
Enemies,
rewarded
Him
with
an
Absolute
Power,
so
that
now
he
is
become
the
Head-Monarch
of
all
this
World;
which
Power,
though
you
may
envy,
yet
you
can
no
wayes
hinder
Him;
for
all
those
that
endeavour
to
resist
His
Power,
shall
onely
get
Loss
for
their
Labour,
and
no
Victory
for
their
Profit.
Wherefore
my
advice
to
you
all
is,
To
pay
him
Tribute
justly
and
truly,
that
you
may
live
Peaceably
and
Happily,
and
be
rewarded
with
the
Blessings
of
Heaven:
which
I
wish
you
from
my
Soul.
After
the
Empress
had
thus
finished
her
Speech
to
the
Princes
of
the
several
Nations
of
that
World,
she
desired
that
in
their
Ships
might
fall
back;
which
being
done,
her
own
Fleet
came
into
the
Circle,
without
any
visible
assistance
of
Sails
or
Tide;
and
her
self
being
entred
into
her
own
Ship,
the
whole
Fleet
sunk
immediately
into
the
bottom
of
the
Seas,
and
left
all
the
Spectators
in
a
deep
amazement;
neither
would
she
suffer
any
of
her
Ships
to
come
above
the
Waters,
until
she
arrived
into
the
Blazing-World.
