The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
16
The
rest
of
the
Inhabitants
of
that
World,
were
men
of
several
different
sorts,
shapes,
figures,
dispositions,
and
humors,
as
I
have
already
made
mention,
heretofore;
some
were
Bear-men,
some
Worm-men,
some
Fish-
or
Mear-men,
otherwise
called
Syrens;
some
Bird-men,
some
Fly-men,
some
Ant-men,
some
Geese-men,
some
Spider-men,
some
Lice-men,
some
Fox-men,
some
Ape-men,
some
Jack
daw-men,
some
Magpie-men,
some
Parrot-men,
some
Satyrs,
some
Gyants,
and
many
more,
which
I
cannot
all
remember;
and
of
these
several
sorts
of
men,
each
followed
such
a
profession
as
was
most
proper
for
the
nature
of
their
Species,
which
the
Empress
encouraged
them
in,
especially
those
that
had
applied
themselves
to
the
study
of
several
Arts
and
Sciences;
for
they
were
as
ingenious
and
witty
in
the
invention
of
profitable
and
useful
Arts,
as
we
are
in
our
world,
nay,
more;
and
to
that
end
she
erected
Schools,
and
founded
several
Societies.
The
Bear-men
were
to
be
her
Experimental
Philosophers,
the
Bird-men
her
Astronomers,
the
Fly-
Worm-
and
Fish-men
her
Natural
Philosophers,
the
Ape-men
her
Chymists,
the
Satyrs
her
Galenick
Physicians,
the
Fox-men
her
Politicians,
the
Spider-
and
Lice-men
her
Mathematicians,
the
Jackdaw-
Magpie-
and
Parrot-men
her
Orators
and
Logicians,
the
Gyants
her
Architects,
&c.
But
before
all
things,
she
having
got
a
Soveraign
power
from
the
Emperor
over
all
the
World,
desired
to
be
informed
both
of
the
manner
of
their
Religion
and
Government;
and
to
that
end
she
called
the
Priests
and
States
men,
to
give
her
an
account
of
either.
