A14204	The little world, or, A liuely description of all the partes and properties of man for inuention wittie, for iudgement learned, and for practise necessarie / by Ro. Vn. ...	Underwood, Robert, fl. 1605.; Vaughan, Robert, 1592-1667.	1612 (1612)	STC 24519.5; ESTC S123184	18,273	48

but that we needes must faile Of Infants lines and such as be exceeding leane or old No man can rightly iudge vpon as Learned men haue told And as this voyce still talked on I chaunst to looke aside Where I an Auncient man all clad in sundry cullours spide And after we each other had saluted by and by I did intreate him that he would vouchsafe not to deny His name for to declare to me and what he did intend By clyming of these places hie and hither to assend Then courteously he spake to me and did this answere frame I called am Pampirus and according to my name To Countries Realmes and Nations and to places farre and neere Their Customes and their Orders for to know to see and heare I trauell that experience in all things I mought haue And when that I haue got thereof as much as I would craue I do impart the same vnto Philotimus for why As Trauellers togither goe Philotimus and I This is the man his voyce it was which lately you did heare With that a plaine and comely wight did presently appeare His countenance was very graue and auncient for to see But yet a cleere and liuely grace In him there seemd to bee His name importes a louer of things honest good and true His cloathing shewd no lesse which was of cullours White and Blue And after salutations done the other did not stay But fell into his former speach and thus began to say Now for our comming to this place you are to vnderstand It was our happ of late to heare of one that tooke in hand For to describe in euery part the Body of a Man Both inwardly and outwardly from topp to toe and than Compareth it vnto an House that hath in it great store Of needfull thinges well gouerned by one of worth and more Applyeth euery part which in the Body wee do see Vnto some necessarie thing which in an House should bee And furthermore report doth goe If we may credite fame That he that made this Symilie so aptly did it frame That it vnto a Common-wealth compared well may bee Much more thereof besides wee heare which is the cause that wee Do hither come and for asmuch as that it is a lore That hath not yet in such a sort been dealt withall before By any man wherefore we craue if you the partie bee That deales herein you will declare the same in each degree And for a new experience I will the same forth show And I too quoth Philotimus thincke to applie it so As that some good and godly vse may of the same be made And thus when as this auntient man his minde hereof had sayd Vpon this aunswer then my selfe did make him this replie Your reasons which you heere alledge I can not well denie Yet cause of great discouragment I see before my face For why the Curious they will carpe and seeke for to disgrace The thing which now you do perswade thereof the setting foorth And say that I for want of skill haue made it nothing woorth And some will thinke me arrogant because I vndertake To wright hereof and make report that for vaine-glories sake I do the same whereas in deede the Truth is otherwise For why the onely cause for which I did the same deuise Was for mine onely priuate vse that many times thereby By meditating of the ●●●e my selfe might edifie And though my paines shall not to some do any good at all Yet su●● I am that harme thereby shall not to any fall Which maketh mee the willinger with you to condiscend Hoping you will as you haue said herein your ayde me lend Almighty God in Paradice when he created man Of Soule and eke of Body both he did create him than With Sence he did this Soule indue which was celestiall And eke with Reason for to rule the Body there withall This Body then I say is like an House in each degree The Soule the owner of the House I do account to bee As touching first this Body then I did of late declare It like an House in euery poynt but now I will compare This House vnto a Common wealth Or as a Cittie faire Or like a Corporation consisting of a Mayer And many other Officers there needefull to be had And Commons too amongst the which are people good and bad And therefore need of gouernment such people for to guide And as each Towne and Common wealth Or Cittie hath beside Appoynted places for to kepe their Courtes of Common law Yea and their Courts of Conscience too to kepe these men in awe So hath each House his magistrates and officers to serue Yea Commons too and places fitt for Courts which do deserue Good magistrates to sit in them But let vs first of all Speake of the Chirest Seate which late thou sawest in the Hall The chiefest Seate in euery House it is the Hart of man VVherein if that the Sperit of Grace do sit as Iudge euen than The Court of Conscience very well we may it call but see These Officers vpon this Court allwayes attendant bee Good thoughts and motions of the minde and next to these proceede Another sort of Officers Good wordes and eke Good deedes Yea Faith and Loue and Charitie Obedience and Care To liue vpright and Pacience and eke a Godly Feare And Mercy that most willingly forgiueth euery wrong And Hope that lookes for happie life although delayes be long And Thankefulnesse that with goodwill doth benefites requite And Pittie that compasion takes of those in ruthfull plight And Vertue that doth Vice abhorre and Meekenes eke so milde That loues to be as Innocent as any little Childe And many such like Officers vpon this Iudge attend To execute his warrants when he doth abroad them sende And if all these doe faythfully their offices why shall We not of right such officers Good Officers them call But when out of this Court alas this rightuous Iudge is gone For many times he doth depart and leaue this Court alone Because the Seate wherein this Iudge doth vse to sit is seene Oft times to be corrupted and defiled and vncleene Another straight vsurpes the roomth and sitting in the place Workes all the meanes he can deuise the Court for to deface Much like vnto the Parrable which we in Mathew reede Of one that sowed in his ground both good and perfect Seede But while men slept his Enemie vpon this Land did sow Great store of Tares among the Wheate and then away did goe So Sathan with his hellish crue this place doth enter in And sitting there as Magistrate his Court he doth begin About him then flocks all his traine like to a swarme of Bees Of Baylifes and of Officers the names of whom be these Pride and Disdaine and Loftines and Scorne and eke Contempt Ambition with Vaine-glorie which

he did restore And made the cullour for to be e'uen as it was before All next about this Kitchin lay a large and a faire Hall Deuided from the Kitchen with a thinne and slender wall VVhose fashion stuffe and workmanship as I was thinking on And did intend to take thereof some better view anon Mee thought I heard a voyce that spake and sayd vnto mee Looke And what thou seest see that the same thou notest in the Booke I looked and within this Hall were many things to see That very rare and precious were and glorious seemd to mee Amongst the rest one thing I saw that did the rest surmount A famous though a little thing a thing of great account It was indeed and like vnto a Throne of Maiestie Or to a Chaier of estate it may compared bee In fashion like a Pine-aple in cullour somewhat redd But in the greater end thereof a Cannopie was sprede That was of cullour very white which signifies in deede That he that sits therein as Iudge must execute with speede True Iustice yea and Mercie both and that he must beware Maliciously not to reuenge nor parcially to spare And furthermore there did I see an hollownes in it And in the same a Magistrate appoynted there to sit Who in his office all his time so well him selfe did beare That all thinges in good order were whilst he did gouerne there But then me thought it greued mee to see when he was out A Wretch intrudes himselfe therein who playes such reuell rout That all the good the which before the other there had done Was by this wicked wight defaste and vtterly for-done Sometime this Seate should tremble which the Keeper helpe● thus By making a Confection De Arramatibus And then applying of the same vnto the Seate did cause The tremblinge and the shaking of the Seate forthwith to pause About this roiall Seate was seene to hang in open sight As Vallance hang about a Bedd a thing in substance light In collour very changeable and soft it was to toutch Yet hard to teare it was so tought it doth not differ much In fashion from the Vallance and I thinke it not amisse To shewe the dayly vse thereof the vse thereof is this As Bellowes drawes in winde to them and then to blow it out And so doth puffe it to and fro all through a hollow spout Euen so do these continually by moouing to and fro Hale in the coole and tender aier and then againe it blow And puffe it out euen by a long and slender Pipe that streach And runneth from these Places and vnto the Turrets reach And if it chaunce at any time this Pipe be stopt they say That then the Seate and all the house do presently decay Some say yea some of good account that perfect good and pure Those Houses framed were at first and so they did endure Till One did by a wicked act then cause them for to bee Full of such imperfections as now we do them see For many times these Houses all haue blemishes and blottes Impediments and crookednes deformityes and spottes And many imperfections more which often times are done By violence or by mischaunce yea often times they come Through lacke of care of looking to then was it in my minde To helpe these inconueniences some remedie to finde And as I then did busie mee therein to take some payne One suddenly did speake to mee and sayd it was in vayne To do those thinges which fitter were by others to be done And bad me goe about the things that earst I had begone With that then looking to the Hall I did behould and see A short and hollow Pillar plaste vpon its topp to bee VVhich oftentimes bedecked was with Iewels Pearles and Ringes With cheines of gold with pretious stones and many other thinges The cullour of this Piller was as white as any Mylke So was the touching of the same as soft as any Silke It framed was with many Ioynts which made it apt to mooue VVhich way the owner of the same thinkt fitt for his behooue Two long and slender Cundits do within this Piller go By one of them the wind it hath his passage to and fro A multitude of many thinges do by the other passe To fill the Pott which earst I saw whereas it boyling was Out off this Pipe or Cundit too wee many times may heare A very sweete and sounding noyse so pleasant and so cleare As that it yeeldeth to our care a mellodie so fit As all the Musicke in the world is nothing like to it Tpon the vpper end of all this hollow Piller stand A Turret set in such a sort and with such cunning hand As to our sight it seemes to grow The workmanship of it Doth differ much from all the things which we haue told of yet So doth the forme and fashion too and substaunce of the same For though that Hee that made it in some roundnes did it frame Yet in the former front thereof such rarenes there is found As nothing in the world can in more maiestie abound In Beautie from all worldly thinges it beares away the bell In Comelines for to behold all thinges it doth excell And if one well do view the same such grauitie it beare As that it yeeldeth cause of loue and matter eke of feare For meeke and milde and gentle thinges feare not to it to come But fierce and cruell thinges from it for feare away do rome I saw a Dore which open was whereby I might discrie All thinges which in this Turret were in order as they lie And first I saw a Mill therein which was deuised so That winde nor water horse not hand did cause it for to goe Nor any Saile did long thereto but yet therein it grindes What so for man is meete to eate or what therein it findes But yet the thing it grindes withall it is not made of stone As other Mills but strange to see it framed is of Bone All next aboue the Mill there doth a little Chamber lie Which Chamber ouer head is seelde with Bone like Iuorie In it a Bed in Pallet wise doth lie vpon the floore Be wrapped in a Sheete of Lawne and in this Bedd before Or in the former part thereof doth sit a gallant wight Lustie and young Inuention for so his name it hight But in the hinder part of it an Auncient man doth lie Who many thinges doth beare in minde they call him Memorie Betwixt these two out of this Bedd I saw there did arise A proper fleete and slender Youth It is his common guise Much company for to frequent and in his table talke To argue there of many thinges to make his Clapper walke Hee often times with Learned men will offer

of minde of man So still in Court they will bee do the Iudges what they can Loe thus you see of keeping Court in euery House the neede Now of the Commons for to speake somewhat I will proceede As Commons for the greater part consist of men of Trade Artificers and Laborers and such as vse haue made Both apt and fit for that which should Societie maintaine Without the which a Comon-wealth cannot it selfe sustaine Euen so in euery Body or in euery House we see Such partes and members of the same as may compared bee To Commons in a Cmmon-wealth and like in each degree For in the Body of a man as I before haue sayd Some part or member of the same can exercise the Trade Of Brewers and of Bakers too yea and some haue the skill To Barber and to Butcher to and Foules likewise to kill So hath it some that exercise the Sciene of Defence And handles can the weapon which oft times do b●●…de offence It hath likewise the Souldier which in Warres can tosse the Pike And handle well the Musket and knowes how with Sword to strike And drumm●●… and Trumpet for to sound and eke the Horse to guide If that they hap at any time vpon an Horse to ride The Carpenters and Coopes art the Coblers craft some can The Ioyners trade and some likewise can Iuggle now and than For euen as in a Common-wealth a Cittie or a Towne Full many idle people bee which wander vp and downe So euery House hath idle mates which vseth for to play At Chesse at Bowes at Dice at Cards at Tennis day by day And some there be which haue likewise in them a Comely grace Within their Armes in kindly sort his friendes for to imbrace And euery House hath Porters too which carry too and fro Great Packes burdens when they are commaunded to do so It hath Intelligencers which seeke out to see and heare What newes abroad both good and bad and then the same they beare Vnto the owner of the House and him thereof doth warne That he the better may preuent the things that might him harme It hath likewise his Clergie men that now and then can preach And doctrine either good or bad can vtter foorth and teach And Orators that can a smooth and learned tale foorth tell And Lawyers too that for it selfe can plead his causes well And Chapmen that cen buy and sell and good account can make Of any thing that for the House they do receiue and take And them likewise that can conferr with either friend or foe And as occasion offered is can frame an answer so And Laborers that digg and delue with Mattocke and with Spade And those that both with hand and foot do vse the Weauers trade And many other Scienses and Arts of sundrie kind Are practiz'd there but halfe of them I cannot call to minde Loe thus you heare what I haue sayd if you will take the paine The meaning of these things to make more manifest and playne That they which heare or read the same the better may apply And make some further vse thereof themselves to edifie I pray you do hee then to mee did answere thus I will Indeuoure for to do herein according to my skill Though many do affirme quoth hee which thing is true and iust Man 's Body for to be a Sacke or Budget full of Dust All painted ouer cunningly with cull ours white and redd And with a kind of slender Haire bethatched ouer head And that the same is made of Clay of Earth and Ashes dry And nothing but Corruption is while it in Graue doth lie And like vnto the withered Grasse and like the ra●ing flower And to an earthen vessell that 's in danger euery hower For to be chrusht in peeces and a Dungeon some it call A Prison-house vnto the Soule that keeps the same in thrall And many such like other names the Scriptures do declare All which is true if with the Soule we do the same compare For why the Soule Gods Image is a thing Deuine but yet As touching this our Body suer God hath bestowde on it Such admyrable workeman-shipp as when he did it frame His wisedome power and glorie then was shewed in the same So that we are therefore to laude and prayse his holy name Likewise each Body of the Iust the Scriptures terme to bee The Temple of the Holy Ghost and that we shall it see At latter day for to arise in glorie for to sitt With Christ who by his precious blood long since redeemed it Beside the ordering of the same and gouernment of 〈◊〉 Euen from the state of Common-wealths do differ not a whit And whyt because all Common-wealths do of our Bodyes come And when our Bodyes cease to bee then Common-wealths are done And as a Realme a Common-wealth a Cittie or a Towne Cannot continue long but is in state of falling downe If that the Common-people which within them do remaine Doe not together ioyne as one their state for to maintaine And as an House must needes decay and all that longe there to If those that dwell therein neglect the things that they should do Euen so it with our Bodyes stands for if it so befall The Eye the Eare the Hand the Foote the parts and members all Ioyne nor together all as one the Body to sustaine wee see by dayly proofe the Body cannot long remaine And euen as in a Common-wealth a Cittie or a Towne There ought to be good Magistrates to kepe the wicked downe And as in euery House there ought a Gouernour to bee Amongst the people in the same good order for to see Euen so in euery Body in the which a Soule do dwell Most needefull t is some one to haue the which may gouerne well Or eke the Realme the Common-wealth the Cittie or the Towne Yea and the Soule and Body too though things of great renowne Cannot endure but needs must fall to ruine and decay The proofe thereof by ruling ill too often see we may As Corporations Citties Townes and Villages a sort The better for to gouerne them haue oftentimes their Court As well Ecclesiasticall as of the Common Lawes So euery man within his House and in him selfe haue cause To see that both these Courts be kept the first of them to keepe For Causes hidden in the Hart and in the Conscience deepe The other Court must houlden be for matters that depende Twixt man and man right for to doe and wrong for to amende Each seuerall Court hath seuerall Rules belonging therevnto For to instruct their suters all what euery one should do The Gospell and the Mortall law who so obserueth this I am perswaded that he shall but seldome doe amisse And for the keeping of these Courts we thus must vnderstand That euery good and faythfull man must dayly

take in hand For to examine well himselfe his thoughts his words and works And Looke if any wickednes in any of them lurks And if he chaunce some faults to spie as doutles but he shall That then vnto the Lord-chiefe-Iudge he faythfully do call For pardon for his former faults and do as is before Directed him and then I thinke he need to do no more Thus briefly haue I shewed my minde and now because the day Comes on apace and that quoth they we needs must hence a way We leaue you till another time when we may talke our fill I rather wish you would quoth I abide and tarry still But when our leaue each one of vs did of each other take The sorrow I conceiu'd thereof did cause me for to wake And when I sawe my selfe in bed I rose vp presently And went and tooke my pen in hand and Wrote downe by and by So neare as I could call to minde what I before had seene And all the talke and conference which passed vs betweene If any shall hereafter seeme for to mislike of this I craue they would vouchsaue to mende what here they finde amisse And here I ende wishing these things may be as well applide And to no worser ende then in this booke is specifide FINIS Letchrie is like a fiery furnace whose mouth is Gluttonie Letchrie is like a fiery furnace whose flame is Pride Letchrie is like a fiery furnace whose sparks are euill words Letchrie is like a fiery furnace whose smoake is Shame Letchrie is like a fiery furnace whose Ashes is Pouertie Letchrie is like a fiery furnace whose end is Destruction the world The people or the bodyes of men The Soule The foure Elements In Adams time The Armes being stretched out the two leggs thighes The Bones The Sinewes The noctrils The Breath Of Tabacco Their heads The Eyes Die Borne The World The Scriptures Diuines God God The place frō the Grames to the Midrife The Bowel The Yard the Fundament The Sides The kidnies The Collicke and Stone The Vrine Phisicke God A Remedie for the Stone The Stomacke The Lyuer The Blood By the Vaines The oppilation of the Lyuer The Phisitian The sundry sorts of meats and drinkes boyling in the Stomacke at once Fast to the Lyuer cleaueth the Gaull The Body The yellow Iaunders The Phisitiā A remedie against the yellow Iaunders 〈…〉 drink● The place from the Midriffe to the necke The midriffe The Heart The fashion of the Heart The fatues thereof An application of the white red cullour of the heart A good Conscience A badde Conscience The trembling of the heart A remedie for the same The L●●ngs or Lightes A similitude The off●ict of the Lounges The Winde-pipe The Head The Heart Diuines and Preachers Adam The Author is heere forbidden to deale in Phisicke The Necke viz.
