strange_a and_o wonderful_a prophecy_n and_o prediction_n take_v from_o the_o apparition_z of_o the_o late_a dreadful_a comet_n the_o last_o wonderful_a eclipse_n and_o the_o great_a and_o signal_n conjunction_n of_o jupiter_n and_o saturn_n in_o the_o fiery_a trigon_n that_o will_v happen_v on_o the_o twenty-third_a of_o october_n next_o signify_v the_o utter_a downfall_n of_o the_o hierarchy_n of_o rome_n and_o other_o most_o wonderful_a and_o unheard_a of_o mutation_n which_o shall_v happen_v in_o europe_n within_o few_o year_n take_a from_o the_o joint_a consent_n of_o the_o most_o learned_a astrologer_n and_o other_o famous_a man_n skill_a in_o the_o astral_a science_n as_o likewise_o a_o prophecy_n of_o mr._n lily_n and_o one_o of_o bishop_n usher_n found_v some_o time_n after_o their_o death_n heaven_n be_v god_n book_n which_o he_o lay_v open_a before_o mortal_n but_o wise_a man_n can_v only_o read_v it_o fool_n admire_v it_o and_o fop_n deride_v it_o but_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o god_n show_v not_o his_o sign_n in_o the_o heaven_n in_o vain_a and_o that_o comet_n eclipse_n and_o remarkable_a conjunction_n of_o the_o luminary_n and_o other_o star_n signify_v something_o to_o mankind_n since_o experience_n the_o mistress_n even_o of_o fool_n teach_v we_o that_o our_o body_n and_o the_o body_n of_o all_o animal_n and_o vegetables_n be_v subject_a both_o to_o the_o benign_a and_o malevolent_a influence_n of_o the_o heaven_n we_o shall_v therefore_o let_v the_o ignorant_a and_o incredulous_a alone_a and_o speak_v only_o to_o those_o who_o with_o

this_o we_o shall_v not_o discourse_v any_o far_a but_o proccee_v to_o let_v you_o understand_v what_o the_o learned_a have_v predict_v from_o those_o signal_n apparition_n and_o that_o great_a conjunction_n which_o will_v be_v celebrate_v in_o october_n next_o as_o to_o the_o first_o the_o comet_n see_v in_o england_n as_o well_o as_o in_o most_o part_n of_o europe_n and_o also_o in_o america_n in_o december_n 1680._o according_a to_o our_o most_o learned_a english_a merlin_n it_o signify_v great_a and_o unusual_a tempest_n by_o sea_n and_o land_n blast_n of_o wind_n strange_a treachery_n death_n of_o cattle_n dearth_n of_o grain_n plague_n and_o famine_n with_o great_a inundation_n of_o water_n which_o have_v be_v verify_v in_o the_o great_a deluge_n in_o flanders_n and_o

be_v regain_v as_o this_o great_a and_o unusual_a flood_n may_v be_v the_o effect_n of_o this_o comet_n so_o also_o it_o may_v have_v its_o signification_n and_o may_v predict_v trouble_n war_n and_o great_a devastation_n and_o depredation_n to_o come_v short_o on_o those_o country_n as_o it_o have_v be_v observe_v in_o the_o like_a case_n therefore_o let_v flanders_n this_o year_n and_o the_o next_o look_v to_o itself_o and_o holland_n also_o lest_o they_o become_v a_o prey_n to_o the_o french_a monarch_n it_o be_v much_o to_o be_v fear_v beside_o this_o comet_n we_o have_v from_o very_o

the_o air_n of_o army_n fight_v ship_n combat_v and_o fire_v one_o at_o another_o all_o which_o be_v not_o send_v in_o vain_a and_o do_v predict_v something_o more_o than_o we_o be_v free_a to_o speak_v of_o at_o this_o time_n but_o proceed_v in_o our_o discourse_n of_o the_o comet_n fromundus_n say_v cometa_fw-la non_fw-la est_fw-la physica_fw-la causa_fw-la calamitatum_fw-la sed_fw-la

so_o we_o may_v well_o believe_v that_o this_o remarkable_a comet_n be_v a_o sign_n of_o many_o change_n to_o come_v and_o we_o may_v thence_o predict_v or_o foretell_v great_a change_n in_o many_o
