pass_v through_o one_o year_n effect_n which_o i_o suppose_v we_o just_o may_v we_o shall_v not_o have_v much_o less_o than_o eight_o year_n expire_v before_o its_o effect_n be_v full_o over_o and_o i_o think_v this_o will_v prove_v the_o exact_a measure_n of_o time_n in_o the_o effect_n of_o this_o comet_n and_o thus_o much_o of_o comet_n in_o general_a and_o of_o the_o comet_n in_o 1680._o in_o particular_a with_o their_o signification_n but_o what_o mr._n holwel_n have_v write_v of_o comet_n be_v nonsensical_a and_o the_o most_o part_n of_o it_o much_o vary_v from_o the_o rule_n of_o astrology_n especial_o what_o he_o mention_v of_o this_o comet_n in_o his_o judgement_n of_o the_o year_n 1683_o which_o be_v one_o great_a cause_n of_o my_o writing_n to_o show_v the_o world_n the_o

he_o advise_v person_n to_o beware_v that_o have_v ten_o or_o eleven_o degree_n of_o leo_n ascend_v and_o in_o his_o judgement_n of_o the_o year_n 1683._o he_o say_v that_o a_o very_a great_a person_n

that_o he_o have_v name_v what_o great_a person_n of_o europe_n he_o mean_v that_o we_o may_v have_v observe_v the_o event_n but_o i_o shall_v here_o as_o i_o have_v already_o show_v they_o that_o

and_o particular_o for_o such_o as_o have_v virgo_fw-la or_o leo_fw-la ascend_v on_o their_o horoscope_n and_o whereas_o mr._n holwel_n say_v in_o his_o judgement_n of_o the_o year_n 1698._o that_o saturn_n in_o opposition_n to_o the_o place_n of_o the_o conjunction_n 1682._o and_o jupiter_n in_o square_a thereto_o threaten_v italy_n with_o no_o less_o than_o confusion_n and_o utter_a subversion_n of_o the_o triple_a crown_n and_o although_o it_o may_v not_o be_v full_o complete_v in_o this_o year_n yet_o say_v he_o this_o year_n set_v a_o great_a say_v to_o it_o and_o in_o the_o follow_a year_n its_o full_a destruction_n and_o that_o then_o the_o power_n of_o france_n shall_v be_v bring_v low_a and_o many_o thousand_o of_o his_o subject_n destroy_v through_o the_o pride_n of_o a_o insult_a king_n and_o envy_v of_o the_o roman_a clergy_n but_o if_o this_o opposition_n and_o square_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o all_o this_o why_o have_v not_o rome_n be_v destroy_v in_o the_o year_n 1639._o when_v saturn_n be_v in_o opposition_n to_o the_o place_n of_o the_o conjunction_n of_o saturn_n and_o jupiter_n in_o leo_n which_o be_v in_o the_o year_n 1623._o i_o have_v search_v into_o history_n and_o find_v that_o there_o be_v war_n at_o that_o time_n between_o the_o swede_n and_o the_o german_n and_o between_o the_o french_a and_o the_o italian_n but_o not_o any_o thing_n to_o the_o destruction_n of_o any_o nation_n or_o people_n yet_o many_o eminent_a person_n die_v about_o that_o time_n some_o in_o war_n and_o some_o in_o peace_n and_o many_o strange_a accident_n happen_v and_o i_o suppose_v near_o the_o like_a may_v happen_v now_o but_o little_a or_o nothing_o of_o what_o mr._n holwel_n write_v in_o all_o his_o judgement_n on_o his_o several_a year_n will_v prove_v true_a there_o be_v no_o ground_n in_o astrology_n for_o they_o but_o what_o his_o own_o fantastical_a pate_n have_v imagine_v to_o raise_v himself_o a_o fame_n in_o the_o world_n by_o predict_v lie_n and_o to_o deceive_v the_o world_n by_o delusion_n for_o i_o will_v appeal_v to_o all_o artist_n what_o rule_v there_o be_v in_o astrology_n whereby_o to_o predict_v as_o mr_n holwel_n have_v that_o in_o the_o eastern_a part_n of_o the_o world_n a_o whole_a army_n shall_v be_v destroy_v with_o fire_n from_o heaven_n with_o their_o wealth_n and_o treasure_n or_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v war_n and_o plague_n over_o the_o face_n of_o the_o whole_a earth_n and_o that_o there_o shall_v be_v so_o many_o man_n destroy_v that_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v man_n enough_o leave_v to_o get_v in_o harvest_n as_o he_o predict_v in_o his_o judgement_n of_o the_o year_n 1699._o therefore_o i_o aver_v all_o that_o he_o speak_v of_o that_o year_n and_o the_o next_o to_o be_v absolute_o false_a nonsensical_a and_o erroneous_a in_o the_o next_o year_n with_o which_o he_o conclude_v his_o book_n he_o say_v that_o rome_n be_v now_o destroy_v and_o peter_n seat_n throw_v down_o and_o the_o conversion_n of_o the_o turk_n and_o jew_n soon_o follow_v and_o religion_n but_o what_o religion_n he_o know_v not_o true_o preach_v universal_o over_o all_o the_o world_n sure_o this_o must_v not_o be_v astrology_n but_o prophecy_n and_o if_o prophecy_n then_o mahometal_a and_o if_o mahometal_a then_o lie_v like_o baal_n prophet_n and_o so_o deserve_v the_o reward_n that_o
