❧_o of_o the_o crinitall_a star_n which_o appear_v this_o october_n and_o november_n 1580._o it_o seem_v gentle_a reader_n a_o difficult_a and_o hard_a matter_n for_o any_o man_n to_o write_v or_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o shall_v be_v well_o accept_v in_o these_o day_n especial_o when_o the_o opinion_n of_o man_n be_v grow_v strange_a and_o diverse_a account_v each_o thing_n either_o too_o white_a or_o too_o black_a too_o sweet_a or_o too_o sour_a too_o worthy_a or_o too_o vild_a yet_o at_o this_o time_n not_o respect_v curious_a opinion_n neither_o regard_v the_o speech_n of_o the_o captious_a so_o much_o as_o the_o request_n of_o friend_n do_v set_v forth_o this_o my_o judgement_n touch_v this_o crinitall_a star_n show_v to_o we_o the_o greatness_n of_o god_n goodness_n by_o such_o a_o forewarning_n to_o repentance_n but_o such_o be_v the_o corruption_n and_o hardness_n of_o this_o age_n that_o we_o contemn_v and_o neglect_v all_o token_n in_o the_o heaven_n by_o respect_v our_o only_a security_n for_o the_o time_n present_a and_o yet_o if_o every_o man_n will_v reckon_v the_o course_n of_o his_o life_n past_a he_o shall_v see_v in_o himself_o great_a cause_n to_o tremble_v at_o these_o thing_n and_o also_o if_o we_o consider_v what_o great_a rout_n of_o evylles_n do_v beset_v we_o and_o way_n how_o many_o have_v be_v destroy_v or_o what_o hurt_n have_v be_v by_o lyghtnynge_n earthquake_n ground_n openinge_n floodde_n tempest_n of_o the_o sea_n great_a wind_n infectious_a air_n war_n mortality_n plague_n strange_a disease_n and_o such_o like_a which_o thing_n commettes_n do_v common_o pronounce_v to_o ensue_v i_o suppose_v that_o the_o remembrance_n of_o such_o danger_n will_v make_v we_o not_o to_o be_v altogether_o cardlesse_o of_o these_o token_n threaten_v to_o we_o calamity_n for_o our_o unthankfulness_n and_o therefore_o who_o so_o ever_o do_v make_v light_a account_n of_o earthquake_n and_o gleam_a star_n and_o be_v not_o move_v at_o the_o sight_n thereof_o with_o the_o sear_n of_o god_n displeasure_n the_o same_o people_n do_v also_o as_o lyght_o and_o as_o little_a regard_n their_o own_o conscience_n and_o amendment_n of_o life_n wherefore_o it_o be_v time_n that_o we_o cease_v from_o puff_a up_o ourselves_o with_o pride_n lechery_n and_o envy_n and_o to_o cleave_v to_o repentance_n and_o to_o lay_v hold_n upon_o david_n anchor_n which_o be_v the_o multitude_n of_o god_n mercy_n for_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o xxxi_o psalm_n mercy_n will_v muiron_v they_o which_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n now_o if_o any_o man_n suppose_v that_o nothing_o can_v be_v right_o gather_v by_o astronomy_n of_o comettes_n he_o be_v much_o deceive_v and_o he_o be_v too_o blind_a in_o his_o hart_n that_o think_v it_o signify_v nothing_o for_o touch_v the_o last_o tayled_a star_n which_o appear_v 1577._o against_o the_o face_n of_o the_o great_a planet_n saturn_n towards_o the_o south-west_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o signification_n be_v to_o continue_v three_o year_n and_o do_v end_n but_o a_o little_a before_o michaelmas_n last_o pass_v and_o touch_v the_o first_o year_n 1578._o the_o effect_n be_v see_v southwarde_o by_o war_n with_o the_o slaughter_n of_o prince_n and_o in_o the_o second_o year_n 1579._o it_o bring_v forth_o great_a irruption_n of_o water_n and_o flodde_n and_o in_o the_o third_o year_n 1580._o the_o effect_n of_o that_o comet_n be_v dreadful_a by_o a_o fearful_a earthquake_n the_o syxt_v of_o apryll_n between_o five_o and_o syxe_n at_o night_n and_o

also_o with_o a_o new_a kind_n of_o strange_a disease_n as_o it_o be_v a_o summer_n rheum_n he_o have_v end_v his_o effect_n and_o immediate_o upon_o the_o end_a of_o all_o these_o effect_n there_o be_v come_v to_o appearance_n a_o crinitall_a star_n far_o different_a from_o the_o other_o in_o place_n situation_n and_o cooloure_n which_o i_o observe_v to_o appear_v immediate_o after_o the_o new_a moon_n the_o viii_o day_n of_o october_n place_v between_o the_o xii_o and_o xi_o house_n of_o the_o heaven_n after_o sun_n set_v the_o moon_n first_o of_o all_o receive_n the_o shadowy_a umbration_n of_o this_o crinita_fw-la by_o a_o quartyle_a radiation_n from_o scorpio_n second_o i_o note_v the_o sun_n to_o receive_v the_o next_o shadow_n by_o strong_a aspect_n and_o that_o the_o sun_n above_o all_o other_o planette_n be_v most_o and_o worst_a radiate_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o continuance_n of_o this_o crinita_fw-la first_o with_o the_o quartile_a of_o saturn_n second_o with_o the_o opposition_n of_o mars_n which_o thing_n do_v signify_v in_o that_o the_o sun_n and_o the_o moon_n which_o be_v animae_fw-la mundi_fw-la do_v especial_o receive_v the_o impression_n of_o his_o evyll_n aspect_n that_o the_o sympathy_n of_o his_o influence_n shall_v be_v grievous_a with_o plague_n and_o infectious_a air_n with_o calamity_n among_o the_o people_n and_o with_o captivity_n and_o evil_a to_o some_o person_n and_o this_o shall_v be_v to_o the_o country_n lie_v within_o the_o eight_o and_o nine_o climate_n also_o i_o note_v that_o this_o crinita_fw-la be_v fix_v against_o a_o star_n of_o the_o three_o magnitude_n near_o upon_o the_o dolphyn_n of_o the_o nature_n of_o saturn_n and_o mars_n and_o be_v of_o a_o septentrional_a latitude_n from_o the_o zodiac_n and_o also_o that_o this_o crinita_fw-la be_v fix_v under_o the_o sign_n call_v aquarius_n be_v a_o ayeryall_a and_o western_a sign_n there_o place_v near_o unto_o that_o ponderous_a planet_n saturn_n possess_v his_o own_o house_n with_o the_o company_n of_o caput_fw-la draconis_fw-la which_o portend_v toward_o the_o north-east_n and_o northwest_o country_n within_o the_o time_n of_o his_o effect_n great_a corruption_n and_o infection_n in_o the_o air_n great_a harm_n and_o hynderaunce_n by_o rage_a wind_n water_n and_o floodde_n misery_n among_o the_o people_n of_o the_o say_a country_n damnum_fw-la altis_fw-la hominibus_fw-la deceitful_a devyse_n and_o great_a terror_n to_o some_o with_o captivity_n next_o to_o this_o i_o do_v observe_v the_o colour_n of_o this_o crinitall_a star_n to_o be_v wateryshe_v dark_a pale_a and_o saturnine_n which_o be_v the_o very_a colour_n of_o death_n whereby_o it_o signify_v sadness_n sorrow_n plague_n misery_n mortality_n fear_v and_o hunger_n to_o be_v among_o the_o people_n dwell_v within_o the_o eight_o and_o nine_o climate_n and_o all_o this_o for_o our_o unthankfulness_n unless_o we_o repent_v we_o of_o our_o sin_n which_o be_v so_o rife_o among_o us._n farther_o i_o note_v how_o that_o the_o tail_n of_o this_o crinitall_a star_n be_v extend_v toward_o the_o face_n of_o mars_n and_o toward_o the_o north-east_n part_n which_o be_v the_o true_a testimony_n of_o war_n bloodshedding_n of_o sudden_a irruption_n of_o soldier_n of_o sickness_n plague_n sweatte_n bloody_a flixe_n and_o heap_v up_o of_o sorrow_n among_o the_o people_n in_o the_o north-east_n and_o west_n country_n final_o i_o observe_v that_o this_o crinitall_a star_n be_v of_o a_o thin_a substance_n &_o that_o it_o shall_v last_v till_o the_o sun_n have_v pass_v under_o the_o end_n of_o libra_n scorpio_n &_o sagittarie_n and_o so_o long_o it_o shall_v be_v apparent_o see_v at_o sun_n set_v in_o the_o time_n of_o his_o continuance_n to_o be_v in_o the_o xi_o x_o and_o part_n of_o the_o ix_o house_n and_o that_o it_o be_v in_o the_o xi_o sign_n from_o aries_n which_o do_v signify_v evyll_n conspiracy_n deceitful_a dealynge_v and_o much_o terror_n and_o danger_n to_o many_o man_n in_o the_o north-east_n and_o west_n country_n so_o that_o to_o conclude_v this_o first_o part_n the_o full_a signification_n of_o this_o crinita_fw-la be_v to_o continue_v two_o year_n and_o three_o quarter_n and_o therefore_o let_v we_o pray_v that_o god_n may_v divert_v and_o turn_v from_o we_o the_o danger_n which_o it_o signify_v in_o plague_n war_n and_o inundation_n of_o floodde_n wind_n and_o water_n and_o thus_o general_o of_o his_o place_n colour_n and_o signification_n next_o follow_v what_o where_o and_o when_o his_o effect_n shall_v fall_v the_o second_o part_n touch_v this_o crinitall_a star_n where_o as_o i_o have_v show_v general_o what_o this_o crinital_a star_n signify_v it_o follow_v in_o this_o second_o treatise_n to_o declare_v in_o what_o country_n the_o effect_n be_v and_o at_o what_o time_n for_o see_v the_o earth_n be_v divide_v into_o four_o part_n europe_n asia_n africa_n and_o america_n and_o every_o one_o of_o these_o comprehend_v a_o multitude_n of_o country_n and_o every_o country_n be_v subject_a to_o diverse_a peril_n of_o the_o heaven_n and_o do_v dyffer_v in_o climate_n and_o in_o the_o obliquity_n of_o the_o

horizon_n then_o it_o must_v needs_o be_v that_o no_o comet_n or_o tayled_a star_n can_v show_v his_o effect_n general_o in_o all_o the_o four_o division_n of_o the_o earth_n but_o proper_o to_o those_o country_n over_o which_o it_o be_v place_v accord_v to_o clymatical_a and_o parellell_a line_n so_o then_o touch_v this_o crinita_fw-la weigh_v his_o ascension_n &_o his_o latitude_n northerly_a from_o the_o zodiac_n with_o the_o extract_n of_o his_o evyll_n shadow_n upon_o certain_a point_n of_o the_o heaven_n with_o his_o place_n and_o term_v in_o which_o i●_n stand_v i_o find_v by_o astronomical_a division_n that_o the_o effect_n shall_v not_o reach_v into_o africa_n nor_o to_o the_o middle_a sea_n neither_o to_o any_o country_n special_o but_o to_o those_o which_o be_v within_o the_o viij_o and_o ix_o climate_n and_o proper_o to_o those_o place_n city_n and_o town_n which_o be_v under_o aquary_n taurus_n leo_n and_o scorpio_n place_v in_o the_o foresay_a climate_n wherefore_o to_o come_v to_o proper_a place_n i_o find_v that_o the_o effect_n of_o his_o shadow_n shall_v be_v see_v in_o those_o place_n which_o be_v near_o to_o the_o ryver_n of_o rhine_n and_o

dansk_a england_n scotlande_n and_o ireland_n and_o in_o like_a case_n to_o pollonde_n and_o belgica_n in_o france_n and_o pycardy_n some_o of_o these_o country_n feeling_n it_o with_o plague_n mortality_n some_o with_o bloody_a war_n some_o with_o the_o death_n of_o great_a pear_n and_o other_o some_o with_o misery_n by_o great_a floodd_n wind_n and_o overflow_v of_o water_n of_o which_o other_o country_n southward_n &_o east_n as_o spain_n barbary_n &_o italy_n turkey_n greece_n and_o all_o which_o dwell_v out_o of_o the_o eight_o and_o ix_o climate_n be_v free_a in_o respect_n of_o the_o corruption_n of_o air_n &_o grievous_a harm_n which_o be_v portend_v by_o weather_n both_o by_o land_n and_o sea_n next_o whereas_o i_o note_v that_o the_o effect_n of_o this_o crinita_fw-la shall_v appear_v two_o year_n and_o three_o quarter_n i_o observe_v by_o the_o profectional_a athazer_n and_o other_o circumstance_n that_o the_o next_o year_n 1581._o the_o effect_n shall_v be_v as_o
