Imprinted for Edwarde White and Thomas Man A Wonderfull strange and miraculous Astrologicall Prognostication for this yeere 1591. Discouering such wonders to happen this yeere as neuer chaunced since Noes floud Wherein if there be found one lye the Author will loose his credit for euer Newly corrected By Adam Fouleweather Student in Astronomy Imprinted at London by Thomas Scarlet ¶ To the Readers health SItting Gentlemen vpon Douer cliffes to quaint my selfe with the art of Nauigation and knowe the course of the Tides as the Danske Crowes gather on the Sandes against a storme so there appeared on the downs such a flock of knaues that by Astrological coniectures I began to gather that this yeere would proue intemperate by an extreme heat in Sōmer insomuch that the stones in Cheap side should be so hot that diuers persons should feare to goe from Poules to the Counter in the Poultrye wherupon I betook me to my Ephimerides and erecting a figure haue found strange accidents to fall out this yeere Mercurye being Lord and predominate in the house of Fortune that many fooles shall haue full cofers and wise men walke vp and downe with empty pursses that if Iupiter were not ioyned with him in a fauourable aspect the Butchers of East-cheape should doo little or nothing all Lent but make prickes seeing therefore the wonders that are like to fall out this present yeere I haue for the benefit of my Countrymen taken in hand to make this Prognostication discoursing breefelye of the Eclipses both of Sunne and Moone with their dangerous effectes like to followe which if God preuent not many poore men are like to fast on Sondaies for want of food and such as haue no shooes to goe barefoot if certaine deuout Coblers proue not the more curteous but yet Astrologie is not so certaine but it may fayle and therfore diuers Hostesses shall chaulke more this yeere then their Guests wil wipe out so that I conclude whatsoeuer is saide by art Sapiens dominalitur astris Your freend and Student in Astrologie Adam Fouleweather Of the Eclipses that shall happen this present yeere to the great and fearfull terrifying of the beholders IF we may credit the authenticall censures of Albumazar and Ptolomey about the motions of celestial bodies whose influence dooth exitat and procure continuall mutability in the lower region we shall finde that the Moone this yeere shall be eclipsed which shall happen in one of the twelue moneths and some of the foure quarters of the yeere whose pointes as they shall be totally durkened so the effectes shall be wondrous and strange For Cancer being the sole house of the Moone dooth presage that this yeere fruites shall be greatly eaten with Catterpillers as Brokers Farmers and Flatterers which feeding on the sweat of other mens browes shall greatly hinder the beauty of the spring and disparage the growth of all hot hearbs vnlesse some northerlye winde of Gods vengeance cleere the trees of such Catterpillers with a hot plague and the pestilence But Cancer being a watry signe and cheefe gouernour of flouds and streames it foresheweth that fish-mongers if they be not well lookt to shall goe downe as farre as Graues end in Wherries and forestall the market to the great preiudice of the poore that all Lent ground their fare on the benefit of Salt fishe and red Herring Besides it signifieth that Brewers shall make hauocke of Theames water and put more liquour then they were accustomed amongst their Maulte to the ouerthrowe of certaine crased Ale knights whose morning draughtes of strong Beere is a great staye to their stomacks a lamentable case if it be not lookt into and preuented by some speedy supplication to the woorshipfull order of ale cunners But in this we haue great hope that because the effects cannot surprise the cause diuers Tapsters shall trust out more then they can get in and although they fill their Pots but halfe full yet for want of true dealing dye in the Brewers debt Thus much for the watry signe of Cancer and because this Eclipse is little visible in our horison I passe it ouer with this prouiso to all seafaring men to cary more shirts then one with them a ship boord lest to their great labour they spend many houres in murthering their vermin on the hatches ¶ The Eclipse of the Sunne THe Eclipse of the Sun according to Proclus opinion is like to produce many hot and pestilent infirmities especially amongst Sunmers and Pettyfoggers whose faces being combust with manye fierye inflamations shall shewe the dearth that by their deuout drinking is like to ensue of Barly if violent death take not awaye such consuming maultwoormes Diuers are like to be troubled with such hot rewmes in their heads that their haire shall fall off and such hot agues shall raigne this yeere with strange feuers and calamities that if the Sunne were not placed in a colde signe Renishe Wine would rise to ten pence a quart before the latter end of August But diuers good planets being retrograde foretelleth that Lemmans this yeere shal be plenty insomuch that many shall vse them to bedward for the quallifying of their hot and inflamed stomackes And Mars being placed neere the Sunne sheweth that there shall be a great death among people olde women that can liue no longer shall dye for age and yong men that haue Usurers to their father shall this yeere haue great cause to laugh for the Deuil hath made a decree that after they are once in hell they shall neuer rise againe to trouble their executors Beside that by all coniecturall argumentes the influence of Mars shall be so violent that diuers souldiers in partes beyond the seas shall fall out for want of their pay and heere in our meridionall clime great quarrels shal be raised between man and man especiallye in cases of Law gentry shal goe check mate with Iustice and coyne out-countenance oft times equitie the poore sitting on pennylesse benche shall sell their Coates to striue for a straw Lawyers laugh such fooles to scorn as cannot keep their crowns in their purses Further there is like to be great falling out amongst Church men and certaine fond sects of religion like to trouble the commons selfe conceipters and ouer holy counterfeites that delight in singularitie shall rise vp and despise authoritie presuming euen to abuse the higher powers if Saturne with a frowning influence did not threaten them with Tibornes consequence But wheras the Sun is darkned but by digits and that vpon the south points it presageth great miseries to Spaine and those Southerlye Countries Friers and Monks shall heat them so this yeer with confessing of harlots that their crownes shall wax balde of their own accord to the great impouerishing of the Spanish Barbers Surgeons in Spain shall wax rich and their Hospitals poore such a pestilent mortallitye is like to fall amongst those hipocriticall Masse-mongers The dukes Marquesses and Counties shall haue their dublets closed with
