The Question being stated, _Whether the Restoring-Bed, was a Fleshy Bed_; All the Parts of my Mind, after many Disputes, agreed, That it could not be a Fleshy Bed, by reason the nature of Flesh is so corruptible, dissolvable, and easie to be dissolved, that it could not possibly be of such a lasting nature, as is required for _Restoring-Beds_. But yet, they agreed, they were like Flesh, for Softness, or Spunginess; as also, for Colour. Also, they agreed, That the Animal _Restoring-Bed_, was of such a Nature or Property, that it could dilate and contract, as it had occasion; in so much, that it could contract to the compass of the smallest, or extend to the magnitude of the largest Animal. Also, they did agree, That it was somewhat like the Stomack of a Human Creature, or of the like Animal, that could open and shut the Orifice; and that when an Animal Creature was put into the _Restoring-Bed_, it would immediately inclose the Animal: and when it had caused a perfect Restoration, the _Restoring-Bed_ would open it self, and deliver it to its own Liberty. XI. Another Question amongst the Parts of my Mind concerning _Restoring-Beds_, or _Wombs_, was: _That in case there were such Restoring-Beds in Nature, as in all probability there were; Where could those Restoring-Beds be?_ viz. _Whether there were any in this World? If not in this World, in any other World?_ The Minor Parts were of opinion, There were none in this World; but, that there were some in other Worlds. The Major Part's Opinion, was, That there were such Beds; but, that Human Creatures would not know them, though they could perceive them: nor, if they could perceive them, could they tell how to make use of them. At last they all agreed, That those _Restoring-Beds_ were in the Center of the World: but, where the Center is, no Human Creature, no, not the most Subtile and _Learned Mathematicians, Geometricians_, or _Astrologers_, could, with their most Laborious Arts, and Subtile Observations, know; and therefore, unless by a special Decree from God, no such Restoration can be made. XII. The Parts of my Mind were very studious to conceive where the Center of the World was: Some of the Parts of my Mind was of opinion, That there were four Centers, _viz._ A Center in the Earth, a Center in the Air, a Center in the Sea, and a Center in the Element of Fire. Upon which Opinion, the Parts of my Mind divided into Minor and Major Parts. The Minor Parts were of opinion, That there were Centers in all the Four Elemental Parts; and that the _Restoring-Beds_, were only of four Kinds: but yet, there might be many several sorts of each particular Kind; and that each particular Kind, with all the several Sorts, was produced in each particular Elemental Center.
