and_o this_o intelligence_n increase_v my_o confusion_n for_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o that_o there_o be_v more_o author_n of_o book_n in_o hell_n than_o man_n in_o the_o whole_a universe_n whilst_o i_o earnest_o endeavour_v to_o thrust_v in_o my_o head_n further_o to_o see_v if_o i_o can_v discover_v any_o of_o my_o acquaintance_n a_o daemon_n who_o keep_v that_o gate_n entreat_v i_o that_o i_o will_v be_v please_v to_o come_v in_o and_o i_o answer_v he_o i_o will_v he_o open_v the_o gate_n which_o though_o not_o very_o large_a i_o enter_v in_o convement_o together_o with_o that_o other_o daemon_n who_o have_v the_o charge_n of_o accompany_v i_o at_o the_o first_o i_o imagine_v that_o there_o be_v divers_a order_n of_o author_n and_o by_o consequence_n divers_a punishment_n therefore_o i_o seek_v for_o divine_n philosopher_n historian_n politician_n mathematician_n lawyer_n be_v romancer_n casuist_n &_o antichristian_a statesman_n in_o several_a apartment_n but_o not_o see_v any_o difference_n i_o ask_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o daemon_n who_o answer_v i_o that_o among_o author_n they_o can_v not_o make_v a_o difference_n of_o person_n or_o of_o matter_n though_o the_o matter_n and_o the_o person_n be_v different_a because_o in_o hell_n author_n be_v condemn_v not_o for_o the_o work_v they_o have_v print_v but_o for_o the_o end_n that_o move_v they_o to_o compose_v they_o then_o i_o pray_v he_o to_o inform_v i_o of_o the_o end_n he_o tell_v i_o brief_o that_o author_n have_v no_o other_o end_n in_o writing_n but_o interest_n and_o ambition_n which_o be_v the_o very_a two_o pury_n send_v by_o lucifer_n into_o the_o world_n to_o draw_v thousand_o of_o soul_n into_o hell_n and_o because_o these_o two_o fury_n do_v make_v their_o nest_n in_o the_o breast_n of_o writer_n we_o see_v more_o of_o they_o in_o hell_n than_o of_o any_o other_o person_n add_v to_o this_o that_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v more_o writer_n damn_v than_o other_o person_n because_o they_o all_o write_v to_o make_v other_o be_v damn_v beside_o they_o spend_v their_o time_n some_o in_o seek_v out_o new_a conceit_n invention_n and_o speculation_n and_o other_o in_o lie_n fancy_n and_o imposture_n whereby_o they_o have_v no_o sense_n leave_v to_o know_v the_o pure_a nature_n of_o that_o god_n who_o they_o feign_v only_o to_o adore_v in_o outward_a appearance_n m._n i_o believe_v that_o writer_n be_v damn_v because_o they_o empty_v their_o brain_n too_o much_o in_o desire_v to_o teach_v other_o that_o there_o remain_v not_o a_o dram_n of_o understanding_n in_o they_o to_o know_v their_o own_o duty_n whence_o the_o most_o of_o they_o become_v vicious_a p._n i_o believe_v so_o too_o now_o whilst_o the_o daemon_n be_v inform_v i_o of_o these_o thing_n i_o go_v up_o and_o down_o observe_v the_o quality_n of_o those_o pain_n which_o these_o miserable_a damn_a author_n suffer_v and_o first_o they_o constrain_v they_o to_o eat_v all_o those_o book_n they_o have_v make_v and_o then_o without_o wait_v for_o the_o natural_a time_n of_o digestion_n they_o draw_v they_o all_o out_o again_o at_o their_o breech_n i_o find_v this_o proceed_n very_o unreasonable_a and_o tell_v my_o sentiment_n to_o one_o of_o those_o devil_n who_o answer_v i_o be_v a_o very_a fool_n to_o undertake_v to_o give_v rule_n to_o hell_n add_v further_o that_o this_o be_v a_o chastisement_n proportionable_a to_o their_o desert_n because_o as_o these_o writer_n bring_v forth_o their_o book_n as_o soon_o as_o they_o have_v beget_v they_o in_o their_o fancy_n without_o ripen_v they_o in_o their_o judgement_n so_o it_o be_v very_o convenient_a they_o shall_v sit_v they_o out_o before_o they_o be_v mature_o digest_v the_o other_o punishment_n be_v that_o the_o devil_n hold_v certain_a iron_n combs_n with_o which_o they_o do_v not_o only_a comb_n but_o tear_v the_o hand_n of_o those_o miserable_a author_n that_o it_o force_a compassion_n to_o see_v and_o hear_v they_o cry_v out_o in_o despair_a term_n o_o curse_a be_v the_o day_n that_o i_o ever_o take_v pen_n in_o hand_n oh_o curse_a be_v he_o that_o sell_v i_o the_o ink_n oh_o curse_a be_v the_o paper_n that_o i_o make_v use_v of_o oh_o curse_a be_v those_o book_n seller_n that_o buy_v my_o manuscript_n oh_o curse_a be_v the_o standish_n that_o stand_v upon_o my_o desk_n i_o wonder_v again_o at_o these_o curse_n and_o say_v to_o the_o daemon_n methinks_v these_o damn_a soul_n deceive_v themselves_o for_o they_o ought_v rather_o to_o curse_v the_o time_n take_v up_o in_o their_o study_n and_o lose_v in_o their_o composure_n and_o not_o the_o pen_n and_o ink_n which_o be_v but_o the_o accessary_a instrument_n to_o which_o the_o daemon_n answer_v i_o that_o i_o be_v more_o out_o than_o they_o because_o the_o author_n can_v not_o curse_v their_o study_n because_o they_o know_v very_o well_o they_o have_v never_o study_v for_o they_o wherefore_o they_o will_v not_o rave_v against_o that_o occupation_n which_o they_o have_v never_o use_v but_o that_o which_o most_o import_v which_o he_o tell_v i_o with_o the_o best_a grace_n and_o i_o do_v not_o find_v to_o be_v false_a though_o
