passe from one to an other but partly they dwel a wry from you partly ouerthwart to you some directly againste you at whose handes you can not loke to receiue any glorious fame renowme Thou seest also the same Earth enuironed and coÌ„passed about as it were with certain gyrdles wherof thou seest two most diuerse contrariouslye distante one froÌ„ the other lyinge vnder the Poles of heauen on both sides to be neuer w t out extreme chilling and frost That which is in the middle is the greatest is broyled with continual and excessiue heat of y t parching sun Two are habitable wherof the one is southward they that dwell therin do set thier feete against yours belong no thing to your kind The other which lyeth toward the North wherin you dwell marke how slender a share porcion commeth to your part therof For al the earth which is inhabited of you narow at the Poles broader at y e sides is a litle smal Island compassed about with that Sea whych on earth call the Atlantick the great and the maine Ocean Sea Which notwithstandinge these his glorious names and great titles how small it is thou seest from these inhabited and knowen lands was either thy name or the name of any of vs able to reach eyther beyond this hil Caucasus which thou seest or els to swymme ouer yoÌ„der Riuer Ganges who in the reste of the vttermost partes of the Easte or West North or South shal heare tel of thy name These being amputated and cut of certes thou well seeste in what narrow straictes youre glorye is able to extend it selfe As for them that shall speake of you alas howe long shal they speake Furthermore if your sequele and posteritie wer desirous and wylling to blaze abroade leaue to their posteritie the worthye praises of euerye one of vs whiche they haue hearde of theyr fathers yet by reasonne of the deluges and invndacions of waters the burnings of lands which of necessitie must happen at a certain time our glory which we may attaine shalbe not onely not eternal but also not of anye continuaunce And what skilleth it to be talked of remembred of them whiche shalbe borne hereafter sythens there was none of theÌ„ which wer borne before who doubtles wer neyther fewer in nuÌ„bre certes wer better meÌ„ a great deale Especiallye sith among them vnto whome the report of oure fame may be heard no man is able to beare any thing in memorie y e space of one yere For comoÌ„ly men do recken a yere only by the course and race of the sunne that is to wit of one Planet But when all the signes starres of firmamente are come againe to the same poinct from whence they once set out begin again to renewe their former discription of the whole Heauen after long space tract of time then maye that bee trulye named the Turning yere wherin how many meÌ„sages are contayned I dare scarcely tell For as the sunne seemed to be Eclipsed dimmed at that time when the Soule of Romulus ascended into these Temples soe when soeuer the sunne in the same part and in y e same time shal againe be obscured darkened then al the sterres and signes being reuoked backe to their selfe same first beginning accompt thou reckeÌ„ it for a full a complete and a perfecte yere And this know further that the twenteth part of this yeare is not yet expyred and ouerrunne Therefore if thou despaire of thy retourn into this place wherin al thinges are for noble and worthy personages how much worth then is this fadinge glorye of men which caÌ„ scarcely last and reach to a litle part of one yere Therefore if thou wilt lift vp thine eyes on high and view this habitacion eternall mansion thou shalt neyther be affectioned to gyue thy selfe to the talke of the vulgare people neyther repose thy hope and confidence in wordlye promotions and aduauncement For it behoueth that vertue her self must with her allurementes draw thee to the true honour renowne What others do speake talke of thee let theÌ„ looke to it themselues but yet talke they wyl But al their talke is bothe enclosed wythin the straycts of those regions whyche thou seeste neyther hath their talke bene of any man perpetuall it both dyeth when the men dye and is vtterlie quenched wyth y e obliuion of posteritie When he had thus sayd certes que I O Africane if to the wel deseruers of their countrie there lyeth as it were a path open to the entrie of Heauen albeit from my childhode I walking in my fathers stepps yours was nothing behind to aspyre and further your renowne yet now seyng so great a reward set oute and propounded I wyllendeuor my self farre more diligently Do so quod he and make thy sure accoÌ„pt of this that it is not thou whych art mortal but it is this body of thyne neyther art thou y t whyche thy outward forme and shape declareth but the mind and soul of euery man is he and not that figure and shape which may be poyncted shewed with the fynger Therfore knowe this y t thou art a god if forsooth a God be that which liueth which feleth w t remembreth w t forseeth which doth so rule gouern moue that body whervnto it is apointed as y t most high prince god doth this world And as god beinge himself eternal doth moue this world being in som part mortal so the mind being sempiternal doth moue the body being fraile traÌ„sitory for y t which is euer moued is eternall But that w t bringeth mocioÌ„ to an other whych shame is moued from els wher wheÌ„ the mouing hath an end it must needes haue an end of liuing also Therfore that only which moueth it self because it neuer forsaketh nor leaueth it selfe neuer truly ceasseth it not to bee moued Moreouer this is y e fountain and beginninge of mouinge to other things that are moued And the beginning hath no original For al thinges procede and spring from a beginning but it self caÌ„ be made of nothing For that which should haue generacion elswhere coulde not be a beginning so therfore if it neuer spring begin neither doth it euer dye For the beginning being extinct neither shall it selfe euer grow againe of an other neither shal it create anye other of it selfe For of necessitie all thinges doe sprynge from a begynnyng And so it commeth to passe that the beginning of mouing is because it is moued of it self and it can neither brede not die or els the whole heauen woulde fall downe and all nature of necessitie woulde ceasse and not obtayne anye force and power whereby it maye be moued wyth hys fyrste impulse and mocion Sithens therfore it playnly appeareth that what soeuer is moued of it selfe is eternall who is he y t dare to denie this nature to be geuen to mindes for that is wythout lyfe whych is moued wyth external force and motion but y t which is a soule is moued wyth internall mocion for thys is the nature and power that is peculier to a soule Which if it bee one alone of al which moueth it selfe certes it was neyther borne and also it is eternal This see that thou exercise in the best things And the best cares that a man caÌ„ take are such as teÌ„d to y e availe profite of out country In which cares the mind beinge enured and practised shall haue speedier accesse and arriual into thys habitacion and maÌ„sion place the soeuer shal it do so if then when it is enclosed in the body it surmount abroade and beholding those things that are outwardly shal greatlye wythdrawe it selfe as much as is possible frome the body For the myndes of theym that haue enthralled and gyuen theymselues to bodilye pleasures and haue made themselues as it wer the bond slaues and mynisters thereof and by the egging and procurement of sensual lust and appetite obeying Pleasures haue prophaned and violated the Lawes bothe of God and man wheÌ„ they be dismissed and deliuered out of their bodyes they are tumbled and tossed about the earthe and do not retourne into this place tyll they haue bene pursued turmoyled many
