that class who are possessed of perpetuities of upwards of One Thousand Pounds yearly after a deduction of two thousand pounds principal money for each of his or her children except the eldest son who should have 200l yearly from the age of 21 and the remainder at his father's death except 200l yearly to the widow if a widow should be Religion and the bare necessaries of life are such total strangers to the lower class of people that they are always looking for a change in the government favourable to a total annihilation of the wealthy and the wealthy on the other hand believe keeping the poor in profound pove●ty and darkness the best way to keep them quiet but it is not and only resembles a fire to be quenched by putting dry fuel on it which will make it burn more violent oppression always terminates in human slaughter though the fire may be a century kindling or centuries it is better for the wealthy lose a liable voluntarily than lose all with the loss of life i●voluntarily like a death bed repentance which God does not listen to for what man worth five ten or twenty thousand pounds yearly in the hands of a banditti of assassins would not give it all for his life Here follows the preventative take a poor man and settle him in a comfortable situation making him pay or fecure a reasonable valuation then see what family he has and for himself wife and children abate twenty shillings yearly each on the following terms give him the book called the new testament and then say do you and your family read this as often as ye are at leisure and whilst you perform its contents I will keep you in the comfortable place I have given but no longer wealthy one you must do more establish a school in your parish or neighbourhood and pay the teacher also and thus do ye wealthy ones with all the poor and idolatry goes to destruction the poor will all love you and God will love you the poor will revolt at the idea of invasion or revolution or any change that should di●comfit their comfort Or if you will not do this subscribe a million of guineas and all people you suspect for wishing your overthrow give them a guinea an head to each in their families to go to America But this last advice will not prevent an invasion it would be only a foolish act of charity that God reqnires besides it wonld depopulate the nation and lessen the rent roll then would the wealthy cry out O my rent roll my rent roll is not half what it was but God will answer O thy rent roll has shut thee out eternally from me thou did not send my messenger among the nations that is to distribute the new testament among the poor thou did not propagate the gospel You will say your Ministers did propagate the gospel but the Lord will say your Ministers are ordained with human forms but my Ministers are ordained with the Holy Ghost from the foondations of the world but ye and your Ministers persecute them and perhaps he will even say ye have also called yourselves Lords and great ones who are but earth which names and titles are for me only and how can you look in my face EXTRACTS FROM DUPATY'S TRAVELS IN ITALY IN my way to the capitol I met a coach in which were two recollet Friars the one seated backwards the other forwards holding between their legs something I could not distinguish Every one stopped and saluted with profound respect I asked to whom this reverence was addressed It is answered one of the standers-by to the Bambino which these good Fathers are carrying to a Prelate who is very ill and given over by his physicians I afterwards procured an explanation what this Bambino was The Bambino is a little wooden Jesus richly dressed and ornamented The Convent which has the good fortune to possess this image neither has nor needs any other patrimony As soon as any person who can afford the expence is seriously ill they send for the Bambino and always in a coach for he never goes on foot Two Recollets conduct and place him by the sick man where they remain at his expence until he dies or recovers The Bambino is constantly running about they sometimes fight who shall have him at the gate of the Convent and tear him from each other in the Summer especially he has extraordinary business though he makes them pay very dearly for his visits on account of the demand and the hot weather This is but fair THE progress insolence and intolerable tyranny of the church of Rome is now become of serious consideration and publick complaint the establishment of which will infallibly be the destruction of church state laws liberties properties and lives The Protestant writers ever since the Revolution have frequently and effectually exposed and confuted this pernicious doctrine calculated to plunder and rob the ignorant and illiterate to whom only the Church of Rome pretends to be the mother and mistress of all churches and domineers the vulgar and wicked into that belief or faith always exerting her tyranny to continue them in the grossest darkness and from a knowledge of the Gospel light from generation to generation The Pope always imposes a belief on the ignorant that he is successor to Christ St. Peter c. and such blasphemy and none can be saved but his subjects and eating of all the luxuries and dainties in the world on a friday or saturday sends people to Heaven except meat which sends to Hell but all his wicked doctrines being contrary to that of Christ he takes ●are the gospel light shall be kept from them as long as he can well knowing a general knowledge of it would destroy his craft as St. Paul did that of Alexander the Copper-Smith FINIS

to ontinue there in hopes of becoming as good a knight as Sir Philip his landlord was Of this Peter I have been told that the Lady Narcliff of Chelsea and the lady St. John of Battersea have often been heard to talk and that they both asserted the truth of our Prophecy and its accomplishment with particulars that are more extraordinary than any I have yet mentioned The noise of Nixon's predictions reaching the ears of King James the First he would needs ●ee this fool who cried and made a●o that he might not go to Court and the reason that he gave was That he should be starved A very whimsical fancy of his Courts are not places where people use to starve in when they once come there whatever they did before The King being informed of Nixon's refusing to come said he would take particular care that he should not be starved and ordered him to be brought up Nixon cried out He was sent for again and soon after the messenger arrived who brought him up from Cheshire How or whether he prophesied to his Majesty no body can tell but he is not the first fool that has made a good Court Prophet That Nixon might be well provided for 't was ordered that he should be kept in the kitchen where he grew so troublesome in licking and picking the meat that the cooks locked him up in a hole and the King going on a sudden from Ham●ton Court to London they forgot the fool in the hurry and he was really starved to death There are a great many passages of this Fool-Phrophet's life and sayings transmitted by tradition from father to son in this county palatine as that when he lived with a farmer before he was taken into Mr. Cholmondeley's family he gored an ●x so cruelly that one of the ploughmen threatened to beat him for abusing his master's beast Nixon said My master's beast will not be his three days A life in an estate dropping in that time the Lord of the manor took the same ox for an herriot This account as whimsical and romantic as it is was told to the Lady Cowper in the year 1670 by Dr. Parric● late Bishop of Ely then Chaplain to S●r Walter St. John and that Lady had the following farther particulars relating to this Prophecy and the fulfilling of many parts of it from Mrs Chute fister of Mrs. Cholmondeley of Vale-Royal who affirmed that a multitude of people gathering together to see the Eagle before mentioned the bird was ●rightened from her young that she herself was one of them and the cry among the people was Nixon's Phrophecy is fulfil●ed and we shall have a foreign King She declared that she read over the prophecy many times when her sister was with child of the heir who now enjoys the estate She particularly remembered membered that King James II. was plainly pointed at and that it was foretold he would endeavour to subvert the laws and religion of this kingdom for which reason they would rise and turn him out that the Eagle of which Nixon prophesied perched in one of the windows at the time her sister was in labour She said it was the biggest bird she ever saw that it was in a deep snow and that it perched on the edge of a great bow-window which had a large border on the outside and she and many others opened the window to try to scare it away but it would not stir till Mrs Cholmondeley was delivered after which it took flight to a great tree over against the room her sister lay in where having staid about three days it flew away in the night She affirmed further to the Lady Cowper that the falling of the garden-wall was a thing not to be questioned it being in so many people's memory That it was foretold that the heir of Vale-Royal should live to see England invaded by foreigners and that he should fight bravely for his King and his country That the Miller mentioned is alive and expects to be knighted and is in the very mill that is foretold That he should kill two invaders who would come in the one from the West and the other from the North That he from the North should bring with him of all nations Swedes Danes Germans and Dutch and that in the solds of his garments he should bring fire and famine plague and murder That many great battles should be fought in England one upon London Bridge which would be so bloody that people would ride in London streets up to their horses bellies in blood that several other battles should be sought up and down most parts in Cheshire and that the last that ever would be fought in England should be on Delamere fo●est That the heir of Oalton whose name is E n and has married Earl Cholmondeley's si●ter shall be hanged up at his own gate Lastly He foretels great glory and prosperity to those who stand up in defence of their laws and liberties and ruin and misery to those that should betray them He says the year before this would happen bread-corn would be very dear and that the year following more troubles should begin which would last three years that the first would be moderate the second bloody and the third intolerable that unless they were shortened no mortal could bear them and that there were no mischiefs but what poor England would feel at that time But that George the son of George shall put an end to all That afterwards the Church should fl●uri●h and England be the most glorious nation upon Earth The same Lady Cowper was not content to take these particulars from Mrs. Chute but she inquired of Sir Thomas Aston of the truth of this Prophecy and he attested it was in great reputation in Cheshire and that the facts were known by every one to have happened as Nixon said they would adding that the morning before the garden-wall fell his neighbour Mr. Cholmondeley going to ride out a hunting said Nixon seldom fails but now I think he will for he foretold that this day ●y garden wall would fall and I think it looks as if it would stand these forty years that he had not been gone a quarter of an hour before the wall split and fell upwards against the rising of the hill which as Nixon would have it was the presage of a flourishing church As to the removal of Pecserton mill it was done by Sir John Crewe the mill having lost its trade there for which he ordered it to be set upon Ludditon hill and being asked if he did it to fulfill the Prophecy he declared he never thought of it I myself have inquired of a person who knows Mr. Cholmondeley's pond as well as Rosamond's in St. James's Park and he assured me the falling of the wall and the pond running blood as they call it are facts which in Cheshire any one would be reckoned mad for making the least question of As there are several particulars in this Prophecy
