The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
61
They
answered,
They
did
verily
believe
she
might.
Hereupon
the
Empress
commanded
the
Fly-men
to
ask
some
of
the
Spirits,
Whether
they
would
be
pleased
to
give
her
a
Visit?
This
they
did;
and
after
the
Spirits
had
presented
themselves
to
the
Empress,
(in
what
shapes
and
forms,
I
cannot
exactly
tell)
after
some
few
Complements
that
passed
between
them,
the
Empress
told
the
Spirits
that
she
questioned
not,
but
they
did
know
how
she
was
a
stranger
in
that
World,
and
by
what
miraculous
means
she
was
arrived
there;
and
since
she
had
a
great
desire
to
know
the
condition
of
the
World
she
came
from,
her
request
to
the
Spirits
was,
To
give
her
some
Information
thereof,
especially
of
those
parts
of
the
World
where
she
was
born,
bred,
and
educated;
as
also
of
her
particular
friends
and
acquaintance:
all
which,
the
Spirits
did
according
to
her
desire.
At
last,
after
a
great
many
conferences
and
particular
intelligences,
which
the
Spirits
gave
the
Empress,
to
her
great
satisfaction
and
content;
she
enquired
after
the
most
famous
Students,
Writers,
and
Experimental
Philosophers
in
that
World,
which
they
gave
her
full
relation
of:
amongst
the
rest
she
enquired,
Whether
there
were
none
that
had
found
out
yet
the
Jews
Cabbala?
Several
have
endeavoured
it,
answered
the
Spirits,
but
those
that
came
nearest
(although
themselves
denied
it)
were
one
Dr.
Dee,
and
one
Edward
Kelly,
the
one
representing
Moses,
and
the
other
Aaron;
for
Kelly
was
to
Dr.
