A73765	Good newes for Christendome Sent to a Venetian in Ligorne, from a merchant in Alexandria. Discouering a wonderfull and strange apparition, visibly seene for many dayes togither in Arabia, ouer the place, where the supposed tombe of Mahomet (the Turkish prophet) is inclosed: by which the learned Arabians prognosticate the reducing & calling of the great Turke to Christianitie. With many other notable accidents: but the most remarkable is the miraculous rayning of bloud about Rome. Done out of the Italian.	Cortano, Ludovico.; Butter, Nathaniel, d. 1664, attributed name.	1620 (1620)	STC 5796.3; ESTC S115623	17,505	48

we_o the_o second_o day_n for_o a_o little_a a_o fore_n noon_n we_o hear_v a_o great_a cry_n among_o the_o reed_n and_o wonder_v what_o it_o be_v we_o may_v well_o perceive_v it_o be_v nothing_o but_o

the_o author_n of_o a_o lumpish_a countenance_n or_o a_o sullen_a heart_n the_o next_o day_n we_o aproach_v the_o great_a city_n of_o which_o to_o talk_v never_o so_o little_a will_v make_v my_o

because_o they_o will_v not_o be_v interrupt_v in_o their_o discourse_n we_o make_v a_o short_a repast_n together_o and_o so_o lock_v the_o door_n to_o we_o attend_v the_o poor_a mendicant_n who_o thus_o begin_v my_o brother_n and_o i_o about_o the_o ten_o of_o september_n embark_v ourselves_o from_o ormus_n and_o come_v to_o catara_n where_o the_o christian_a caravan_n be_v almost_o ready_a for_o their_o voyage_n to_o cayro_n but_o before_o i_o proceed_v any_o further_a i_o will_v be_v plain_a to_o tell_v you_o the_o occasion_n of_o our_o go_v thither_o 1._o partly_o for_o curiosity_n 2._o partly_o for_o devotion_n 3._o partly_o for_o wealth_n 1._o first_o for_o curiosity_n the_o desire_n of_o acquaintance_n with_o foreign_a country_n and_o the_o willingness_n to_o put_v the_o practic_n in_o the_o other_o scale_n against_o the_o theory_n or_o if_o you_o please_v to_o make_v our_o superficial_a read_v the_o sweet_a by_o industrious_a experience_n teach_v we_o the_o way_n to_o conceive_v that_o all_o country_n may_v be_v national_a to_o a_o wise_a man_n 2._o second_o concern_v devotion_n have_v long_o since_o hear_v that_o the_o persian_n in_o this_o place_n condescend_v even_o against_o the_o rule_n of_o their_o koran_n to_o

the_o turk_n have_v conquer_v greece_n and_o some_o part_n of_o hungary_n yet_o he_o admit_v the_o toleration_n of_o any_o religion_n so_o that_o they_o contribute_v his_o custom_n and_o acknowledge_v his_o superiority_n he_o be_v content_v to_o leave_v they_o to_o their_o own_o establishment_n so_o that_o the_o greek_a church_n do_v public_o maintain_v their_o ceremony_n and_o the_o roman_a catholic_n have_v by_o themselves_o a_o church_n by_o the_o name_n of_o franc_n even_o in_o constantinople_n or_o if_o you_o will_v in_o the_o vine_n of_o pera_n or_o galata_n choose_v you_o whether_o yea_o when_o the_o covetous_a patriarcke_n of_o constantinople_n will_v have_v farm_a his_o place_n to_o the_o jew_n the_o viceer_n do_v not_o permit_v the_o same_o but_o by_o way_n of_o punishment_n confine_v he_o to_o zio_n from_o whence_o with_o a_o beliall_a spirit_n he_o in_o a_o monstrous_a contumacy_n go_v to_o mosko_n and_o about_o the_o year_n 1588._o resign_v that_o title_n to_o the_o archbishop_n there_o &_o for_o 100000._o piece_n of_o gold_n invest_v he_o with_o the_o absolute_a primacy_n of_o the_o patriarch_n of_o the_o greek_a church_n but_o see_v the_o just_a judgement_n of_o god_n ere_o he_o have_v pass_v quite_o through_o moldavia_n certain_a janissary_n set_v upon_o he_o and_o not_o only_o take_v away_o his_o gold_n but_o bereave_v he_o of_o his_o life_n 2._o second_o you_o must_v consider_v that_o among_o the_o turk_n in_o take_v of_o prisoner_n they_o have_v no_o distinction_n of_o person_n but_o in_o their_o ransom_n account_v all_o slave_n and_o confine_v they_o to_o the_o galley_n with_o a_o ignominious_a robe_n shave_v they_o and_o mark_v they_o on_o some_o part_n of_o their_o flesh_n 3._o three_o that_o this_o famous_a town_n and_o harbour_v and_o island_n of_o rhodes_n be_v remarkable_a for_o two_o thing_n 1._o first_o for_o a_o colossus_n of_o brass_n which_o boast_v of_o great_a antiquity_n and_o be_v indeed_o a_o man_n in_o absolute_a proportion_n straddle_a over_o the_o haven_n between_o who_o leg_n a_o ship_n with_o full_a sail_n top_n and_o top_n gallant_a may_v enter_v so_o that_o when_o the_o turk_n surprise_v this_o place_n he_o jade_a 1500_o camel_n with_o the_o rubbish_n of_o this_o one_o monument_n whereby_o most_o of_o his_o great_a ordinance_n be_v cast_v which_o be_v now_o in_o the_o tapinare_fw-la the_o office_n of_o his_o artillery_n and_o whereas_o you_o shall_v read_v that_o s._n paul_n write_v to_o the_o colossian_n it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o rhodes_n 2._o second_o that_o after_o the_o knight_n templar_n be_v dissolve_v there_o arise_v a_o new_a order_n to_o supply_v that_o place_n call_v s._n johns_n of_o jerusalem_n who_o when_o the_o turk_n conquer_v syria_n and_o palestina_n be_v of_o so_o great_a revenue_n in_o europe_n that_o for_o many_o year_n they_o both_o expulse_v the_o saracen_n and_o hold_v war_n with_o these_o new_a mahumetanes_n till_o at_o last_o the_o high_a decider_n of_o controversy_n submit_v they_o to_o alteration_n and_o both_o their_o monastery_n and_o their_o palace_n be_v pull_v in_o piece_n by_o those_o barbarous_a hand_n that_o neither_o spare_v jerusalem_n nor_o the_o wonderment_n of_o the_o world_n the_o temple_n of_o diana_n in_o ephesus_n falsify_v by_o some_o story_n upon_o herostratus_n who_o to_o perpetuate_v to_o himself_o a_o name_n of_o villainy_n set_v it_o on_o fire_n 4._o last_o of_o all_o that_o however_o the_o koran_n position_n of_o not_o dispute_v of_o their_o religion_n seal_v up_o as_o it_o be_v the_o lavishnes_n of_o man_n tongue_n from_o go_v at_o large_a yet_o will_v they_o hear_v stranger_n in_o civil_a opposition_n and_o even_o the_o strict_a argument_n that_o may_v conculcate_v and_o beat_v down_o their_o new_a invention_n but_o this_o seldom_o happen_v because_o either_o they_o learn_v none_o but_o the_o persian_a or_o syriack_n language_n few_o man_n understand_v they_o can_v dispute_v with_o they_o but_o now_o to_o the_o archbishop_n after_o the_o friar_n have_v overpass_o the_o ceremony_n of_o gratification_n &_o amplify_v the_o discourse_n of_o there_o travel_v with_o the_o circumstance_n of_o the_o vision_n the_o archbishop_n reply_v your_o news_n have_v no_o way_n get_v any_o hand_n of_o my_o admiration_n for_o it_o have_v be_v long_o since_o frequent_v
