Lipsick and Wittemberg and the Imperial Towns of Frankford Worms and Normberg gave their Suffrage Nay the Calvinists also freely consented to observe the same Jubilee in opposition to the Romish Church the Protestants put forth Declarations of their Sufferings from the Popish party and in the end both parties took Arms. The Spaniards seek to Consummate the Match between the Infanta and the Prince of Wales in hopes to advance the Romish Faction which causeth much Jealousies and many fears among the Subjects Gondamor endeavoureth and accomplisheth the death of Sir Walter Rawleigh as a common enemy to the Spanish cause In a word it would take up a particular Volume to relate the Troubles and Consternations of Europe about Religion at that time and the principle end of all was to reduce this Kingdom of England to the Romish perswasion but before Saturn got out of Gemini Mars came to an Opposition of him in Sagitary These Hurries did not end here with 1618 but continued at least four years and more till the Conjunction in Leo gave fresh matter to the motion of Nature Anno 1623. In July there was a Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in Leo The Marriage of the Prince of Wales to the Infanta is the publick and common business of both Kingdoms the Bishop of Conchen Inquisitor General of Spain and Conde Olivares sollicite the Prince to turn Papist to which end they tamper with the Duke of Buckingham and the Pope sends a Letter both to the Prince and Duke about the same matter in the end the Match is disliked and the Papists of England apprehend themselves in danger thereby The Prince leaves Spain and shortly after Marries the French Lady the Spaniards also prepare for a War with England They that would see more of these matters let them read our Learned and Honest Country man John Rushworth's Historical Collection of private passages of State Anno 1621. There was a Conjunction of Saturn and Mars in Libra a humane Signe and an Opposition of Jupiter and the Sun from Sagitary and Gemini the people commit divers Outrages in and about London Dr. Lamb is Murdered in the Streets the Duke of Buckingham is Killed by John Felton who is also Executed great Severities are used against the Papists who are Imprisoned and proceeded against according to Law divers Priests and Jesuits taken at Clerkenwell and sent to Newgate new Proclamations against all Priests and Jesuits but particularly against the Titular Archbishop of Calcedon and all others who had taken Orders from the See of Rome Anno 1638. Which was the fifteenth year after the Conjunction Saturn comes to the opposite point of the Conjunction and Mars the same year is seven Months passing through the Sign Sagitary that is from the begining of February to the beginning of September The Scots quarrel with the Common-Prayer Book lately sent into Scotland and it occasions Tumultuous Meetings The Scots enter into a Covenant Charles the first declares against Innovations in Religion The Queen Mother of France comes into England The Covenanters take Arms and Sollicite France for Aid The King leads an Army into Scotland against them he Encamps within two Miles of Berwick in view of the Scotch Army they come to a Treaty Peace is Concluded and the Armies are both Disbanded and not long after the Troubles of England began that is in the year 1640. about Bishops and Religion Anno 1643. In the Month of February there was a Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in 25 degrees of Pisces and Mars at the same time in Gemini in Square with the Sun and hastening to a Square of Saturn both in Pisces The Capuchins at Somerset-house were banished by Order of Parliament the Cross in Cheapside demolished c. The difference in England grows bloody now in good earnest what the Causes of these differences were together with the particular transactions of the management are so well known to all men in general that it will save me both time and Paper in the further inlargement thereon Anno 1656. Saturn came to the opposite point of the last Conjunction and so made up not full fourteen years but that Conjunction should have fallen in Aries and Saturn would have come to its Opposition in 1658 yet nevertheless when he came to his fifteenth year you may observe what a hurry here was in England Sir Henry Slingsby and Dr. Hewit died upon Tower-hill Oliver Cromwel died also Richard Cromwel was quickly after made Protector and was afterwards quickly found useless there were now divers new cuts of Government as a Council of State the Keepers of the Liberty of England a Committee of Safety c. Anno 1663. There was a Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in 13 degrees of Sagitary and a little before the Counjunction Mars opposed them both from Gemini The January following there were 19 or 20 men Executed in Yorkshire as Conspirators and the March following there was four more Condemned and Executed in the same County for the same Facts and in the year following the Wars with Holland began Anno 1678. Saturn came to an Opposition of the place of the former Conjunction and within two Months after he came to a Conjunction of Mars near the same place this being compleatly the 15 year after the Conjunction the Michaelmas day at night following there was a Horrid Popish Plot discovered at Whitehall to take away His Majesties Life c. To alter Religion bringing in Popery and change the Government for which thirteen men have suffered namely Coleman Green Berry Hill Ireland Groves Pickering Whitebread Harcourt Gawen Turner Fenwick and Mr. Langhorn But this may be observed by the Studious Reader that from the beginning of October 1678. suddenly after this Plot was discovered to the end of May last past the Fiery Planet Mars was passing through Leo which was almost eight Months a thing not usual what hath been the effect of this in England I suppose the whole Kingdom knows neither need I be at the pains to Insert the particulars thereof they being so well known to every one Thus have I endeavoured to prove the fifteenth year after the Conjunction to be a year of Trouble especially to England if at that time Saturn or Mars happen to be in Sagitary or Gemini and that at those times there happens debates and differences about Religion as I have before proved Hence it may appear that these subsequent years are like to be years of great trouble in the World to omit a particular Judgment of all the troublesome years I only here speak in the general for I well know that Saturn and Jupiter make no less then four Conjunctions in the Sign Leo and I could speak something of their effects but it is not my business in this place perhaps I may live to do it But I speak according to the precedent Hypothesis First 1686. Jupiter in Scorpio in Quartile to the place of the last Conjunction and Mars
