A90988 The shepherds prognostication fore-telling, the sad and strange eclipse of the sun, which wil happen on the 29. of March this present year 1652. Which eclipse will begin about eight of the clock in the fore-noon, and so continue till past the hour of eleven; which will be is dismallest day that ever was known since the year 33. when our savior Christ suffered on the cross for the sins of mankind. At which time, the seas did roare, the earth did quake, the graves did open, the temple rent from the top to the bottom, Luk. 23. 45. And there was a darknesse over all the land. This prediction also fore-tells of many strange presages and passages which will follow after that horrible eclipse of the sun, and what wil insue. With a perfect way whereby to avoid the insuing danger. By L.P. L. P. (Laurence Price), fl. 1625-1680? 1653 (1653) Wing P3383; Thomason E1351_1; ESTC R209363 3,332 16

man_n as_o you_o may_v read_v in_o the_o book_n of_o joshua_n 10.13_o how_o that_o the_o lord_n god_n cause_v the_o sun_n and_o the_o moon_n to_o stand_v still_o until_o such_o time_n that_o the_o people_n of_o god_n have_v avenge_v themselves_o of_o their_o enemy_n whereby_o we_o may_v well_o understand_v and_o know_v that_o god_n have_v a_o great_a power_n than_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o sea_n the_o air_n and_o the_o firmament_n the_o planet_n and_o the_o star_n the_o sun_n and_o the_o moon_n and_o in_o a_o moment_n of_o time_n can_v the_o lord_n cause_v they_o all_o to_o alter_v their_o property_n and_o to_o do_v whatsoever_o he_o please_v to_o have_v do_v look_v again_o in_o the_o book_n of_o isaiah_n how_o hezekiah_n be_v sick_a and_o how_o the_o prophet_n of_o the_o lord_n come_v unto_o he_o and_o bid_v he_o set_v his_o house_n in_o good_a order_n and_o therewithal_o tell_v he_o that_o he_o shall_v die_v and_o not_o live_v then_o hezekiah_n turn_v his_o face_n to_o the_o wall_n and_o pray_v to_o the_o lord_n and_o weep_v bitter_o and_o behold_v the_o messenger_n of_o the_o lord_n return_v unto_o hezekiah_n again_o and_o say_v the_o lord_n have_v hear_v thy_o

we_o draw_v into_o consideration_n why_o and_o for_o what_o cause_n the_o lord_n make_v the_o sun_n and_o the_o moon_n to_o stand_v still_o in_o the_o time_n of_o joshua_n and_o at_o another_o time_n that_o the_o sun_n shall_v go_v back_o ten_o degree_n in_o the_o time_n of_o hezekiah_n sure_o the_o reason_n be_v this_o joshua_n be_v a_o righteous_a man_n one_o that_o serve_v and_o obey_v the_o

wherefore_o the_o lord_n show_v he_o this_o wonderful_a token_n of_o his_o love_n and_o care_n that_o he_o have_v over_o joshua_n and_o his_o follower_n by_o example_n of_o the_o stand_v still_o of_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n and_o as_o for_o hezekiah_n he_o lament_v he_o weep_v and_o he_o pray_v unto_o the_o lord_n in_o so_o much_o that_o the_o lord_n god_n take_v pity_n and_o compassion_n upon_o he_o and_o withal_o prolong_v his_o life_n and_o restore_v he_o to_o his_o former_a health_n so_o that_o the_o plague_n of_o pestilence_n nor_o any_o other_o sickness_n with_o which_o his_o country_n be_v annoy_v have_v no_o more_o power_n over_o he_o now_o here_o follow_v on_o the_o direction_n let_v we_o strive_v to_o accompany_v joshua_n in_o his_o faithfulness_n and_o with_o all_o true_a obedience_n keep_v our_o promise_n with_o god_n and_o endeavour_n ourselves_o to_o please_v his_o divine_a majesty_n that_o the_o lord_n may_v assist_v we_o in_o whatsoever_o we_o take_v in_o hand_n and_o let_v we_o with_o good_a hezekiah_n be_v sure_a to_o set_v our_o house_n in_o order_n for_o we_o have_v no_o lease_n of_o our_o life_n let_v we_o i_o say_v call_v upon_o the_o lord_n and_o
