Dream
The world is persuaded not without some
ground colour of reason that all reformers and system mongers are
mad: and not without some colour of reason
Formerly they need to set you live upon grashoppers
in deserts: are set upon walk
about upon golden heights or set upon three legged
stools in temples: now they live in garrets:
from whence in due time they are removed
to Bedlam Bethlehem (not of I don't mean Judah, but
of Moorfields.
My madness has not yet as far as I can perceive myself to my own
knowledge consciousness, gone beyond a dream. I dreamt
t'other night that I was a founder of a sect:
of course a personage of great sanctity and importance
it was call the sect of the utilitarians.
There came to me a great man named Ld
J., and he said unto me, what shall
I do to save the nation. I said unto him
follow me.
