NEW ATLANTIS 

(1626) 

by Francis Bacon 

We sailed from Peru, where we had continued by the space of one 

whole year, for China and Japan, by the South Sea, taking with us 

victuals for twelve months; and had good winds from the east, though 

soft and weak, for five months’ space and more. But then the wind 

came about, and settled in the west for many days, so as we could 

make little or no way, and were sometimes in purpose to turn back. 

But then again there arose strong and great winds from the south, 

with a point east, which carried us up, for all that we could do, to- 

ward the north: by which time our victuals failed us, though we had 

made good spare of them. So that finding ourselves, in the midst of 

the greatest wilderness of waters in the world, without victuals, we 

gave ourselves for lost men and prepared for death. Yet we did lift 

up our hearts and voices to God above, who “showeth His wonders 

in the deep”; beseeching him of his mercy that as in the beginning he 

discovered the face of the deep, and brought forth dry land, so he 

would now discover land to us, that we might not perish.

The Chymical Wedding of Christian Rosencreutz 

Edited into modern English by Adam McLean and Deirdre Green 

The First Day 

On an evening before Easter Day, I sat at a table, and having (as my custom was) in my 

humble prayer sufficiently conversed with my Creator, and considered many great 

mysteries (whereof the Father of Lights his Majesty had shown me not a few) and being 

now ready to prepare in my heart, together with my dear Paschal Lamb, a small, 

unleavened, undefiled cake; all of a sudden arose so horrible a tempest, that I imagined 

no other but that through its mighty force, the hill on which my little house was founded 

would fly into pieces.

The Hieroglyphic Monad :: John Dee

THEOREM I 

It is by the straight line and the circle that the first 

and most simple example and representation of all 

things may be demonstrated, whether such things be 

either non-existent or merely hidden under Nature's 

veils.

Paine's original work was published in two parts in 1794 and 1795, titled Part First and Part II, and it sold very well in 

America. Part III was completed in the late 1790's, but Thomas Jefferson convinced Paine not to publish it in 1802, aware of 

the possible reprisals. Five years later Paine decided to publish despite the backlash he knew would ensue. It did not sell well.
