The Description of a New World, Called the Blazing-World
·
Duchess of Margaret Cavendish Newcastle
92
'Tis
true,
answered
the
Duchess,
unless
it
be
Kings
Eldest
sons,
and
they
are
created
Princes.
Yes,
replied
the
Empress,
but
no
soveraign
does
make
a
subject
equal
to
himself,
such
as
Kings
eldest
sons
partly
are:
And
although
some
Dukes
be
soveraigns,
yet
I
have
heard
that
a
Prince
by
his
Title
is
soveraign,
by
reason
the
Title
of
a
Prince
is
more
a
Title
of
Honour,
then
of
soveraignty;
for,
as
I
said
before,
it
belongs
to
all
that
are
adopted
to
the
Crown.
Well,
said
the
Duchess,
setting
aside
this
dispute,
my
Ambition
is,
That
I
would
fain
be
as
you
are,
that
is,
an
Empress
of
a
World,
and
I
shall
never
be
at
quiet
until
I
be
one.
I
love
you
so
well,
replied
the
Empress,
that
I
wish
with
all
my
soul,
you
had
the
fruition
of
your
ambitious
desire,
and
I
shall
not
fail
to
give
you
my
best
advice
how
to
accomplish
it;
the
best
informers
are
the
Immaterial
Spirits,
and
they'l
soon
tell
you,
Whether
it
be
possible
to
obtain
your
wish.
But,
said
the
Duchess,
I
have
little
acquaintance
with
them,
for
I
never
knew
any
before
the
time
you
sent
for
me.
They
know
you,
replied
the
Empress;
for
they
told
me
of
you,
and
were
the
means
and
instrument
of
your
coming
hither:
Wherefore
I'le
conferr
with
them,
and
enquire
whether
there
be
not
another
World,
whereof
you
may
be
Empress
as
well
as
I
am
of
this?
