12.A Memorable Fancy, Plate 15
I was in a Printing house in Hell ＆ saw the method in which
knowledge is transmitted from generation to generation.
In the first chamber was a Dragon-Man, clearing away the rubbish
from a caves moth; within, a number of Dragons were hollowing
the cave.
In the second chamber was a Viper folding round the rock ＆ the
cave, and others adorning it with gold, silver and precious
stones.
In the third chamber was an Eagle with wings and feathers of
air; he caused the inside of the cave to be infinite; around
were numbers of Eagle like men, who built palaces in the immense
cliffs.
In the fourth chamber were Lions of flaming fire raging around ＆
melting the metals into living fluids.
In the fifth chamber were Unnam'd forms, which cast the metals
into the expanse.
There they were reciev'd by Men who occupied the sixth chamber,
and took the forms of books ＆ were arranged in libraries.
