THE GOLDENAGE OR The glorious Rising of the fifth Monarch Shewing the Greatness of that Prince who shall reign and govern and what shall antecede and happen upon His Coronation Deduced from the direful Effects of the great Eclipse of the Sun March 29. 1652. AS the Stars of Heaven are the most excellent Characters of the Divinity Power Wisdom Glory of their Creator in that they are writen and ingraven by the finger of God himself the Father of Lights so amongst the Coelestiall phainòmena the Doctrine of Eclipses takes precedency because that from their Observations the primary foundations of the whole body of Astronomy are confirm'd evinc'd and demonstrated For seeing that the Sun is eclipsed we conclude the cause thereof to be the interposition of the Moon betwixt him and the Farth and the cause of the Moons Eclipse the interposition of the Earth betwixt her Body and the Suns This Eclipse wil pul down the pride of Magistrates who are grown to such a terrible hight that 't is their glory to insult and act wickedly Mars is chief Lord thereof and you shal see what a kind of creature he is He is a hot and dry firy-burning Planet an angry conquering creature destructive to nature He is so angry that he will hear no reason the Priest with his Rhetorick in the Pulpit cannot move him neither doth he regard the Lawyer that pleads at the Bar all the Sophistry in Oxford and Cambridge will not be able to qualifie his anger in the effects of this Eclipse but are all like to feel his fury He layes out all his strength in what he doth or in what he delighteth to do his natural disposition is to set people together by the ears I may say of him as Virgil said of A●ecto The dearest knots of friendship he unties And utterly subverts whole Families With dismal funerals and bitter wrath A thousand names a thousand arts he hath To break sweet peace by his impetuous charms The Youth desire and crave and handle arms The whole Nation of Europe is in a mutiny and they have as much patience as a nest of Wasps The Merchants Trading is bad he scarce knows into what Countrey to trade and when he doth he loseth his ships by Sea The world is mad and servants turn masters and what will the end be Kings and great men are undone the Lawyer leaveth prating fals to freting Learned Guido saith That al the evil that is done and that is not a little wil be done under pretence of Religion which how true it hath proved already in England every one that hath but wit enough to eat an egge knoweth The Sea devoureth a great part of Holland Zealand and Flanders Dreadful streamings are seen in the air strange Satrre● new Comets wil probably be visible about 10 of the clock muck like unto the ensuing Figure Which signifies as Campanella saith Hot infirmities acute diseases wars and dissentions between Kings and their people and between one King and another let them remember what Aesop said of the Mouse and the Frog who whilest they were busie in fight came a Kyte and caryed them both away Look to it Princes of Europe there will appear upon the Wing within these 4 years a Kyte that will serve you the same sauce Beasts of great valour and various in colour will appear in the Air The beginning of the year will be very fruitful but heat and dryness consume the fruits of the Earth before the Harvest As for the Quartile of Jupiter and Mars which happens in Feb. 1653. I shal speak nothing but refer you to the ensuing Verses upon that month and they are these Mars layes his knap-sack by and stoutly draws His trusty ●ilbow to prescribe us Lawes Jove claims his priviledge and Mars his power Both wran le hard and each on other lour At length Jove yields and Mars assumes the chair Votes his own person noble doings fair Learned Guifus saith That the Eclipse of the Sun threatens destruction to the fruits of the Earth kills the fruit in the bud kills sheep and other cattel great Kings Princes Magistrates are either banish'd imprison'd or put to death Princes and their Subjects agree like Cats and Dogs first they snarl and then bite great Armies terrible Wars slaughters of men burning of Towns Theft Rapins Depopulations Fire and the Sword raigns Lord paramount in the Nations threatned by this Eclips Neither shall the Women want their share for such of them as are with child shall be too subject to miscary both men and women are subject to acute Feavers or other Epidemical diseases the air is hot blasting and burning dearth of Corn is threatned Change of Government both in Principalities and Common-wealths let Experience be Judge Time will tell truth when I may not If the new River-water had been brought from Ware to London in lead it had come clear but being brought in earth it is muddy But I must not find you a tale ears too therefore I will leave this Nation to pick English out of it This Eclips also threatens to make Kings and Magistrates Goal-birds terribly afflicting them some of them whom God pleases lose their heads more is the pity and then they feel the lighter others are hang'd and they cannot feel at all 't is as wretched a time for Kings as ever the Sun saw The Soldiers will be in arms against their Governors right or wrong for a Sword and a Gun are two prevailing arguments All the miseries the sword can bring upon a people and they are not a few will have influence upon this Eclips and the goods of rich men who have tired their unlucky Common-wealth destroying braines will be extorted by violence The bodies of men are troubled with Choller Towns and Cities are consumed by fire and ruined by the souldiery

Murther and Thee very are as familiar as Butterflies in April The souldiers sword will prove sharper then the scholers wit So great and direful are the effects of this Eclipse that it far exceeds that in Anno 1540 where the Sun was almost totally darken'd as may appear by the ensuing Type or Figures This Eclipse happen'd in Aries as that of the 29 instant and immediatly followed a parching hot and dry summer insomuch that deep Rivers were fordable and great ones dry'd up the very heat of the Sun set fire to Woods burned the King of Echemias Palace and fired a great part of Germany Yet notwithstanding this was not so great and formidable as that on the 29 will be the sight whereof will terrifie all mortall eyes and indeed it will prove the greatest that we had this many centuries of years nay ever since the Son of Righteousness suffer'd on the Cross when there was darkness over the face of the whole Earth And the truth is a general pestilence is threatned to Europe of which England is like sadly to participate neither shall Holland want its share The places subject to the effects of this Eclipse are England France Germany Swedeland Poland Denmark Silesia Syria the holy Land Palestina Russia Ireland Holland Zealand Loram Franconia c. Of Towns and Cities York Hull Naples Ancenia Florence and most of the sea-Towns in Asia the less Oxford Caunt Venice together with many others and indeed the effects will be generally felt over all Europe in one measure or other so that I may say of Europe concerning the effects of this Eclipse as Mr. Thomas May Esquire once did of Mauritania a little before the battel at Thapsus onely a little altering the words All Monarchy it quite will overthrow More wrack alas its sad effects will do Then after-ages can repair with speed And Beasts possess the seats of Nations dead Where feared Monarks once gave laws to men Shall Lyons raign and Tygers make their Den. The slimy Serpent all alone shal crawl And wanting men shall be no plague at all Solar Eclipses have been ever fatal to Kings Magistrates they cannot agree but onely in one thing and that is oppressing the people O pure they are old dogs at that and the poor groan under it Arise ô God and help them Lawyers and Clergy-men are displaced and imprisoned some made shorter by the head A new sect of Hereticks arise which makes me admire how worse can be invented then are already Private murthers and poyfonings are like to be very rife look to 't ye great ones in authority have a care of your selvs lest some of you be sent to take a supper apud inferos before you are aware of it 'T is a scurvy fashion I do not like it What the effects of this Eclipse are like to produce to every particular Nation in Europe 1 IT being taken for granted that the effects begin to operate jul 1652 and decline in the year 1655 you may by this know the time of the sufferings of Europe an Epidemical disease called madness possesses the brains of the Princes thereof the 5. Monarchy of the World is coming and the effects of this Eclipse make way for him but he is no Scotch-man no nor English 't is he before whose coming The Heathen shall rage and the people imagine a vain thing the Kings of the earth shall set themselves together against him c. His Rise will be great his Coronation glorious and he shall rule all Nations in the world Read the second Psalm thorow out and you shall see both what shall antecede his Coronation and what shall follow it This is the Monarchy that I expect yet I expect it not in the effect of this Eclipse for this shall onely make way for the fifth Monarchy and when you see all Europe together by the ears when you see Kings mad and their subjects stubborn then think of these things and know that he that shall come wil come and will not tarry 2 The Germanes are as bad together by the ears as they were in the days of that conquering Queen of Sweden Bohemia suffers extreamly the truth of it is I doubt the poor Emperor will be totally routed 3 As for England I cannot sing a quictus est to them as yet within a few years I shall Thou hast but one storm to endure bear that with patience I hope thy Wars aae almost at an end Thou wilt in the year 1653. be molested with a consuming pestilence and troubles with a change of Government at one and the same time In making thy choice of thy next Representative take counsel of God For assure thy self of this thou shalt find my words true as when the Sun is upon the Meridian thou shalt never be free from plagues either of War Pestilence or Famine till thou dost submit to such a Government as God intends for thee the cryes of the poor whom thou dost tyranically defraud of their birthrights are heard in the ears of our Lord God Almighty Be pleased to read every morning the 26 Chap. of Levit. 'T is worth your observation Our present Governors who have transmografide Monarchy into a Free State must not esteem themselves exempted more then other States from the effects thereof For soon after this eclipse great men shall suffer infamous deaths and we shall generally find men mad to undo themselves the Prince of planets the Eye of the World and the Glory of the Heavens is eclipsed just upon his Throne the sight whereof will terrifie all mortal Eyes for we shall see the Stars shine as in a Winters night and strange and wonderful sights and apparitions such as our fore-fathers never beheld will be seen in the Air to the astonishment of all mankind Many Astrologers calculate that the effiects of this dreadful eclipse will have a great influence upon the K. of Spain and the K. of Scots the first great and potent the second poor and despised and threatens them with sudden deaths From which good Lord deliver us all 4 The Jesuits set all Europe together by the ears let Padua in Italy beware of Aug. 1653. lest either the sword earth quake or pestilence destroy it Ah poor Vniversity I mourn for thee so much good hast thou done to the world in general Bombardy is quite and clean destroyed and beasts possess the seats of dead people The Pope hath got the impudence to out-face Heaven to see if his buls can outroar the thunder 5 The Turks fall into a part of Italy which maketh his Holiness to tremble but he knoweth how to leave St. Peters keys and take St. Pauls sword in hand the truth is his fear is more then his harm it s not the Turk shall pull down the Pope and yet he must fall Neer unto which time another dreadful eclipse of the Sun wil be seen whose Conjunction will be in Mars The sight whereof will be very terrible to behold and
