TWO PROPHECIES MADE BY HVMPHREY TINDALL VICAR of WELLING Two hundred yearees past and after his death found in his study with his name subscribed thereunto and some sixty yeers since coppied out by a worthy Gentleman and ever since kept private THE time will come as true as the Creed Of Priests and Clerks we shall have need Churches shall fall it shall be great wonder The Clergy and Laity they shall be asunder Hnd praying to Saints shall passe away And holy writ shall teach us what is to say The Churches where Images were wont to be set With lively letters they shall be writ Though young mens hearts as heavy as lead Both young and old may them read But to God of his preheminence and of high Throne All honour shall be to him alone For fancies shall faile and right shall appeare And thus it shall continue from yeare to yeare But at the last a world to tell There shall be stirred str●fe with many a Battell For a double danger shall be the cause For oft changing and breaking of Lawes The other shall be if you read aright The losses of Lords Earles and Knights For woe worth the time and woe worth for sorrow Mischiefe drawes on and it will woe borrow A maiden Queen shall have in hand to govern And rule this her Hand Her Lords by righteousnesse rule shall shee At length of her great Realme discharged shall be For Berons and Lord a promise shall make Of Gods holy word that part to take But Prelates in pride their lust to fulfill Shall cause thereby much mischiefe and ill VVhich made say both Priest and Clerk● They never heard of such a peece of worke For happy shall he be then that is so true That can bid Brittain farwell and adeiw For sorrowes shall come both to high and to low How one man shall trust another no man shall know For then Ladies with sorrow shall sing And widdowes and maids their hands shall wring Children at their paps shall dye in the street All kind of creatures shall mourn and weep VVoe and alas then may be said All kind of pastimes downe shall be laid Then Castles and Towers and all pleasant buildings Shall be destroyed and come to endings Then who so be in bed over night The next morning shall be prest to fight Then great sorrow hunger and pain To eat dead folk men shall be fain VVoe worth that sinne that this cause should be To cause God thus to shew such extremity But a voyce shall come both night and day Crying to heaven to call you away But sorrow and paine for our offences VVith battell famine and pestilences As a dissolved land brought shall it be But who knowes more no no but he Then a peace there shall be pretended That peace may be dissembled That peace may be removed That peace will false be proved But now great sights will appear For great Mars Armipotent will be very diligent His bloudy bands of steele to whet Vpon their side that we shall them betide This Mars with cruel faction with Nation unto Nation And all Bri●tish scituation shall be with oppression And still ride in their passion Flanders shall rise in with France With speare with shield Bill and Launce Confetered with all yance To offer their defiance Spaine shall imploy the Brittains to annoy The Irish us to destroy the Welchmen to annoy The Danes to pluck and pull all this resurrection Shal put to their ful fection to bring thee to destruction Brittain take this admonition Be wise and change thy condition Doubt not but think it sure this storm thou shalt indure VVith heart confesse and to heaven redresse thee For Brittaines name shall cleave away Out of this land for ever and aye The End of the first Prophecie THE SECOND PROPHESY OF HUMPHREY TINDALL Vicar of Welling WHen Rome is removed into England And every Priest the Popes power shal have in hand Betwixt sixe and three as I understand This Battle shall be in Britton land When pride is most prest and lecherie most rife And Knights and Knaves clad both in a clothing Holy Church awlesse and the Land law lesse By the yeares of Christ be come and gone In the Land of Albion shall be much confusion Clerkes shall be taxed and great benefits have VVith flattring fawning their Prince they shal please And all against the Lawes they shall rave And cause the Commons to be at great discord A dreadfull Dragon with a red Rose of great fame A Bastard in wedlocke borne shall be The Crowne to attain to challenge by name Tunc veniet puer ubinam ille The shortest night and longest day that shall be found in the whole yeare There shall be challenges in fight great desire to see and heare Penticost night shall be cloathed in white in token of Lightening For to be at Candlemas when torehes be light a new Mumming for to be Afterward to be convayed out of the Northward to meet at Ravenspron S. and P. shall stand in case full hard Till as the Keeper of the Crowne Shall dye upon his brothers sword point Then all shall be turned up side downe Then a Lion shall come out of the VVest To stirre them for to cease Then shall there be no manner of rest Till twenty hundred Steeds run masterlesse away A wet Summer before this shall be a bloody harvest A wallowing winter and a windy Lent after this shall be Thus endeth Humphrey Tindall Vicar of Welling FINIS
