the Venetians Propter bonum Consilium for their prudent Counsels This Prophecy is worthy of Remark and still the French in the Van. The Venetians very lately Speremus influente favente Deo with their Confederates have begun to dare the Turk No doubt they proceeded upon good Ground and Advisement And they made good Preparations But where 's the French Cavalry and the English Mariners to make up Joachim's Ternary I heard an honest Divine say when the French made the great Inrodes into Belgia That certainly this was the Man should in a due Time ruin the Turk But he was first to do wonderful things else-where to give Proof of his Conduct Management and Success Vna dies Lotharos Burgundos Hebdomas una Vna domat Batavos Luna quid Annus aget Loraine a Day Burgoigne a Week does gain Holland a Month what may a Year obtain And that if he did not in time endeavour such a Thing being a Great Second Cyrus see Isa 45. Ver. 1 2 3. he must expect ill Success if not something worse I know a certain Person curious in Astrology that notwithstanding all these wonderful Acts already gloriously performed fears exceedingly he will make an End though not so violent and bloody as Great Cyrus the First yet lugubrous and untimely enough For my part I cannot like the Cloak Party furiously decry Astrology being a singular and innocent Science befitting any Man of Parts above the Vulgar But I love to joyn Divinity with it And therefore I firmly believe that as the Sun and Moon those great Lights stood still in favor of worthy Joshua Chap. 10. and that the First of these went Ten Degrees backward for a Sign to Hezekiah 2 King 20.11 Isa 38.8 that all Malevolent Influences are averted from this Great French Prince for the Good of Christendome and Downfal of the Turk Ad Christianissimum Regem Baldwini solium Caroli Titulumque memento Haec moveant animum Rex Lodovice tuum Christicolas placidae mandato * Isa 45.1 2 3. Cyre quieti In Turcam validas vertito Magne manus Let Baldwin's Throne and Charles his Title heat Thy Thoughts by aim at These become more Great Great Cyrus daign to give the Christians Ease And let thy Force the Turks alone debrize I have already mentioned the French Monarch is become Potent in Shipping But he is not King of the English Mariners which must make up the Ternary according to Joachim Strange Revolutions have happened in England since the Year 1678. That Generous Maximus Marinus mention'd in Day-Fatality pag. 7. once Great Admiral of Arragon and till the Year 1673. Lord High Admiral of England is now again at length Re-invested in all his Honors and that in spight of that Crew mention'd by Introductio ad Latinam Blasoniam pag. 165. with strange Prophetick Reflection He I say is Restor'd influenc'd by a Divine Power and Favor and the Benevolent Rays of Fraternal Love the Love of the Greatest Sea-Prince in the World Charles le Bon le Grand One born for the Good of Christendom to make Amends for his Miraculous Restorement Pray God incline the Heart of the Great French Cyrus the Heart of the Great Charles of Great Britain and then the French Cavalry and the English Mariners influenc'd by the Auspicious Genius and Success of Prince Maximus Marinus his Royal Highness will be assistant to the Venetian Counsels and Undertakings already upon the Wheels To satisfie the Curious I have added Geornitz Prophecy verbatim as I find it in Latine Translated out of Persian Imperator noster veniet Ethnici Principis Regnum capiet Rubrum quoque pomum capiet in suam potestatem rediget Quod si septimum usque Annum Christianorum gladius non insurrexerit usque ad duodecimum Annum eis dominabitur domos aedificabit Vineas plantabit Hortos sepibus muniet liberos procreabit post duodecimum Annum apparebit Christianorum gladius qui Turcam quaquaversum in fugam aget Our Emperor shall come He shall get the Kingdom of the Gentiles Prince Also he shall take the Red Apple and shall bring it under his Subjection And if the Sword of the Christians shall not rise after the Seventh Year he shall have Dominion over them unto the Twelfth Year He shall build Houses plant Vineyards Shall hedge about his Orchards shall get Children And after the Twelfth Year shall appear the Sword of the Christians which shall put the Turk to Flight every where It is to be noted That the Sword of the Christians is principally understood of the French because he is commonly stiled the Most Christian King To Conclude and shut up All It is confest that in all Ages have been Prophecies of Future Events yet many times so obscure as not to be understood or if understood not to be believed But truly what is here produced seems obvious to every Man's Understanding And as to the Qualification and Possibility of the Person nothing can be objected and who besides Him can lay Claim to such Pretensions and Encouragements Prov. 21.1 God rules the Heart of Kings Let all Christendom pray That God would incline the Heart of the Most Christian King to so Pious an Enterprize Rex Lodovice tuam subito quam suscipe Spartam Debellare Scythas operum mihi crede tuorum Good Lewis with all speed begin thy Work Thy Work it is to subjugate the Turk FINIS Qui quondam Fata Dierum Signaque Cygnorum scripsit hunc atque Libellum
