Discovered Refuted and Corrected By C. GEORGE WHARTON Student in Astronomy Printed in the Year 1647. To the Reader IT is a common Proverb Dogs bark more for Custom than Fierceness And had I not assuredly known this Whelp Lilly to be one of that bawling Litter I should not have suffered his perpetual snarling with that Patience and Temper I did but before this would have alighted from my Saddle to hurle him one stone at the least to gnaw on But as he is now grown bolder and blacker in the jaws I must begin to have an Eye over him and a care to keep him at a distance lest he bite me till I bleed and thereby I become maniaque or Brain-sick like himself and so be more desirous of his Liver than his Heart I shall scorn to take notice of his former Grinnings nor will I trouble my self or the Reader with any repetition of his by-past Fooleries frantick Expressions and but a few if any of his many Errors and Mistakes so grosly committed in every of his Lowzy-Pamphlets for them indeed I have tyed and twitch'd up together in a Pack-thread as thinking them fitter for his Quondam Hell than the meanest Shelf in my Study but I will content my self only with that dainty bit this sweet Brat of his own begetting Merlini Anglici Ephemeris the fourth and perhaps the last of that name And examine I shall and that strictly of what metal it is compounded or whether it be simple like the Dad of it and the truth you have freely as followeth The Errors Mistakes and Mis-applications of Mr. Lilly's New Epheemeris c. I Will not trouble my self or the Reader in taking notice of any thing in his Long-winded-Preface save only the reverend mention he hath made concerning him whom he is pleased to term an A. B. C. fellow viz. Naworth of Oxford by whom as he pretendeth he found himself intolerably abused in Print and could do no less than vindicate himself in point of Art As for the Name Naworth which William Lilly and John Booker to make their Worships merry have so often and as wisely as wittily inverted to No-worth and Worth-nothing it is well known to be the Letters of my name long since transposed purposely to avoid the Scandal and obloquy which both these Mounte-banks so greatly delight in and indeavour so much to assume For whereas I observed the Common people generally possessed of a confident beliefe or rather a foolish conceipt that such as could write Almanacks were esteemed with a Country-reverence Wise-men like Lilly and Booker or if I shall render it in their own Dialect Conjurers or such as can tell all things past present and to come And so were usually haunted by the silly people with a number of unlawful unnecessary and ridiculous questions by means whereof many ingenious and honest Artists have not only been branded with the titles of Conjurers Necromancers Wizards Sorcerers and Figure-Casters in the worst sense but have often been imprisoned and Indicted and proceeded against upon the Statute against Witchcraft c. and hardly escaped with their lives especially when they came before Judges that were ignorant in or disaffected to Astrology after they had suffered several years imprisonment and thereby wasted and consumed their estates I say that I having resolved to write yearly which was not usual without prefixing a name nor for the reasons above mentioned would I then publish any thing of that nature in my own name
