The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
81
The
Spirits
answered,
That
unless
the
Beasts
of
the
field
were
barred
out
of
manured
fields
and
gardens,
they
would
pick
and
chuse
the
best
Fruits
as
well
as
Men;
and
you
may
plainly
observe
it,
said
they,
in
Squirrels
and
Monkies,
how
they
are
the
best
Chusers
of
Nuts
and
Apples;
and
how
Birds
do
pick
and
feed
in
the
most
delicious
fruits,
and
Worms
on
the
best
roots,
and
most
savoury
herbs;
by
which
you
may
see,
that
those
Creatures
live
and
feed
better
then
men
do,
except
you
will
say,
that
artificial
Cookery
is
better
and
more
wholsome
then
the
natural.
Again,
the
Empress
asked,
Whether
the
first
Man
gave
Names
to
all
the
several
sorts
of
Fishes
in
the
Sea,
and
fresh
Waters?
No,
answered
the
Spirits,
for
he
was
an
Earthly,
and
not
a
Watery
Creature;
and
therefore
could
not
know
the
several
sorts
of
Fishes.
Why,
replied
the
Empress,
he
was
no
more
an
Airy
Creature
then
he
was
a
Watery
one,
and
yet
he
gave
Names
to
the
several
sorts
of
Fowls
and
Birds
of
the
Air.
Fowls,
answered
they,
are
partly
Airy,
and
partly
Earthly
Creatures,
not
onely
because
they
resemble
Beasts
and
Men
in
their
flesh,
but
because
their
rest
and
dwelling
places
are
on
Earth;
for
they
build
their
Nests,
lay
their
Eggs,
and
hatch
their
Young,
not
in
the
Air,
but
on
the
Earth.
