Therefore I was very glad to be rid of it by this transfiguration , and the time seems tedious unto me that I have the use of it now so long to parly with you , for I remember when I was a Man , it fill'd the cells of my brain ever and anon with turbid and turbulent cogitations , with strange chimera's and crochets , which disquieted the tranquillity and calm of my mind ; And as for my Body , this shape which I now bear is more healthfull farr and neat , for now I am not subject to breed Lice and other Vermin ; And whereas this pedicular disease , with a nomberlesse sort of other maladies and distempers , attend Mankind , ther 's but one onely disease that our Species is subject unto , which the Veterenarians or Farriers call Malila , and that is onely in the head , when som unusuall defluxion of rheume falls thence into the nostrills , which being stopp'd turns to the improvement of health , but if once it falls upon the lungs we are gone : And observable it is , that being dead , we have cleaner carcases than Men , and divers medicinall things are found in them , as our Liver , Hoofs , or Bones being reduc'd to powder are good , as the Naturalists note , against the Epilepsy or Comitiall sicknesse , with other diseases ; Nor do any crawling nasty worms grow out of our Cadavers , but Beetles , and other airy Insects , which are not so noisome ; 'T is tru , the Country is good , but she may be said to be now like Lucian's sick Eagle , shot and pittifully wounded with shafts of her own feathers , Gheriona never shewed she had in her as much to make her happy , as she shews now to make her self unhappy ;

All which proceeds from a sad disease which hath seiz'd upon many thousands of them , it is a pure Scotomia , an odd kind of Vertigo that reigns amongst them , which turns the head round , and fills it with new chimera's ever and anon ;

384:16, 715:8f) A trance, or, Newes from Hell brought fresh to towne by Mercurius Acheronticus. Those I was told were those over-curious people in England which would be never satisfied with Christian Knowledge , and had no other devotion then to be alwaies learning and never comming to the Truth , as these restlesse fillers never come to the bottome ; Then I beheld the most horrid tortures of those Giants that would have thust Iove out of heaven , and a world of English among them , who partaked of the same punishments , because they had conspired upon earth to dethrone their lawfull King ; Not far further I might espie glowing fiery tubs made Pulpit like , and I was told they were prepared for those profane and presumptuous Mecanicks and other Lay men , who use to preach in London , and abuse the Sacred Oracles of God ; and Vzza was not far off tormented there for being so bold with the Arke ; A little thereabouts I saw hoopes of Iron were made Garter-like , of hot glowing steele , these I was told were designed for those perjured Knights of St George in England , to weare upon their legs , when they come thither for breaking in the late war that solemn Oath they had taken at their instalement , to defend the honour and quarrells , the rights and dignities of their Soveraigne ; A little distant I might see divers brasse hoopes glowing with fire , and they were scarfe-like , I was told they were ordained for those Knights of the Bath to weare for Ribbands next their skins when they came thither , for infringing that Sacred Oath they made at their Election , which was , To love their Soveraigne above all Earthly creatures , and for his right and dignity to live and die ; A little beyond I saw a Copper Table , with Chaires of the same , all candent hot , I was told those were for perjured English privy Concellors , who had bro●k their Oath to the King , which they took to be true and faithfull servants unto Him , and if they knew or understood any manner of thing to be attempted , done , or spoken against His Majesties Person , Honour , Crown , or Dignity , they swore to let and withstand the same to the uttermost of their power , and cause it to be revealed , either to himself , or any other of his Privy Councell ; Some few paces off I might descry a little round place like a Porters Lodgeat Court with a Fane on the top of it , where was a new kind of exquisite torment provided , but I could not discerne it by reason of the smoake ; for once a Secretary of State and his Son in England , who though they were of differing opinions in every thing else , yet jump'd in this , to destroy their King and Countrey ; Hard by , I saw a little furnace so candent glowing hot that it look'd of the colour of a Rubie or Carbuncle , I was told that was to clap in the Master of the Kings Jewell-house when he comes thither , for being so perfidious and so perjurious to his Master ; I asked whether there were any other infernall tortures besides fire , yes I was answered , for to speake of fire to a people habituated to a cold clime , were not only to make them to slight Hell , but to invite them to come to it ; So my Spirit brought me Northward a little , and shew'd me a huge lough , where there were frosted mountaines up and down , and I might discover among them a world of Blewcaps lying in beds of Ice with their noses and toes nipt , the icesicles stucke to their fingers ends like hornes , and a bleak hispid wind blew incessantly upon them , they made the most pitious noise that me thought I heard in all Hell ; for they wawld , screechd , and howld out ever and anone this note , Weae is me , wea is me , that ever I betrayd my gid King . keywords: a44758; acheronticus; appeare; army; author; bloud; books; church;
