Il testo della A memorable fancy 1

(plates 6-7)
As i was walking among the fires of hell, delighted with the enjoyment of
Genius, which to angels look like torment and insanity, i collected some
Of their proverbs: thinking that as the saying used in a nation mark its
Character. so the proverbs of hell shew the nature of infernal wisdom
Better than any description of buildings or garments. when i came home: on
The abyss of the five senses, where a flat sided steep frowns over the
Present world, i saw a mighty devil folded in black clouds, hovering on
The sides of rock, with corroding fires he wrote the following sentence
Now perceived by the minds of men & read by them on earth: how do you know
Bu ev'ry bird that cuts the airy way, is an immense world of delight,
Clos'd by your senses five?
