re●●esented the forme and ymage of the sunne ●nd Moone The materiall cause is a thicke ●owde equall and regulare which is pla●●d by a thwarte maner of the sunne so that ●yther aboue nor beneath him nor right before him it standeth but placed at the one side And this matter thicke and waterie that the refraction may be caused the better and this regulare also that it may the more giue and shewe an vniforme ymage of the sunne And waterie that the Sunne may the commodiouser be represented euen as the like is caused in water So that the clowde prudently is placed on the one side and not vnder the Sunne nor right against for if right against then woulde the same be a Rainebow if vnder the sunne then would Halo be caused And this for the more part is caused in the East or West through the disposition of the clowde The formall cause is the refraction of the sunne beames in the clowde being at the one side which altogyther as a Glasse receyueth the sunnes beame and the colour which then is in the sunne it causeth euen the like to appéere as when of a light ayre through his thicknesse the sight is broken For the beames falling vnto the same clowde thus fashioned and of the same broken vnto the sight especiallye in that clowde not being ouer thicke thinne or blacke doe expresse the ymage of the sunne To conclude when a dewie clowde or vapourous is in anye part pierced then are the Sunne beames gathered in that hole and by the refraction shed vnto the sight so that such a brightnesse appéereth as if the sunne it selfe where séene For thys Parelius is as the ymage of the sunne appearing in a great looking Glasse And hereof it is that manye sunnes sometimes are sayde to appeare togither as two or thrée So that the first is the figure of the sunne it selfe the second and third consisteth through the breaking of the sunne beames in the clowde placed on the one side by which thrée sunnes or more are oftentimes séene As the like by experience was obserued that the king of Polelande sawe togyther sixe sunnes after which folowed that Fraunces the French king was taken prisoner for the tyme. The similitude AS the drie exhalation and that vehemently hote in pierting the vpper region of the kindled starre doth represent a ●orme and sphericall figure through the farlesse euen so a strong and mightie vapour flying into the highest of the middle ayre giueth the forme of the sunne and causeth a circle to appéere The ende and effect of these THe finall cause Phisick or the materiall effect of Pareliorum is the foreshewing signifying and pronouncing of rayne to come abounding of a moyst matter For they signifie that the ayre to contayne much matter or substaunce of showers especially if Parelia shall be placed in the South region of heauen For the greatest clowds hereof waxe ouercharged in that the South ayre is better and sooner chaunged into water than the North ayre But to the Diuines or Theologically these many tymes por●ende and foreshewe feareful and straunge matters so that they be often in doubt what will follow except anye by hap woulde make a coniecture of them For as all celestiall impressions in a maner haue a certaine hid or secret signification in nature which is not materiall euen so doe Parelij alwayes portende som● singuler will and effect deuine to be looked for so that many sunnes are sildome séene but that eyther conspiracies be attempted or the alteration of kingdomes or some new matters laboured about the subuersion and dispos●ng in religion To conclude the cause of these is so secret and diuine that the great conspiracies of Monarchies the dissentions of Kings and Princes and the fearefull vprores and commotions of other Empyries ciuill battels and other lamentable matters to men are wreshewed by such impressions Certaine examples of these IN the yeare of our Lorde 1157. in the Moneth of September were thrée sunnes togyther séene the skie then being verie cléere and within a fewe dayes after of the same moneth thrée Moones were séene and in that moone also possessing the middle place a whyte crosse was séene After which a great discorde folowed among the Cardynals in the election of their highe Byshop and a lyke controuersie among the Princes electours in the election of the Emperour of Rome In the reigne of Henry the seconde king of Englande and in the Calends of October for thrée howres almost were séene thrée circles about the Sunne after which vanished awaye two sunnes séemed to appeere After this sight insued a discorde betweene the king and the Archebishop of Caunterburie And Frederick Emperour besseged Mylayne for seauen yeres almost and in the ende sacked and spoyled the Citie lamentably In the yere 1169. thrée sunnes were séene in the West in the Nonis of September and after two houres two of them vanished the same which possessed the middle did set alone in the Weste and in the lyke maner the next yere folowing thrée Moones appeared In the yere 1314. before the ciuill battle of Lewys of Bauare and Frederick of Austrige which contended and fought for the Empyrie thrée ●unnes were séene in heauen and a discention also of the electours ▪ and other attempts folowed In the yere of our Lord. 1469. at Rome were thrée sunnes séene after which an vprore of the Citizens folowed And the sam● yeare a battle fought in Italie Frannce● Duke of Mylayne dyed and for the segni●ritie many contended by great conspiracies In the yeare 1492. after the middle of December in Polelande were thrée sunnes séene at noone after which Vladislaus king of Hungarie ouercame Maximilian and Casimirus king of Polelande left his lyfe or dyed thys yeare before whose death a Comete went which appéered for two Moneths togither after the sunne setting In the yeare 1514. in the tenth day of Ianuarye and seauentéene of March thrée sunnes were séene in heauen of which the middle was greatest and in the eleuenth of Ianuary and seauentéenth of March thrée Moones were like séene in the same yeare the Sweueland men stirred an vprore agaynst the Duke of Wirtenbergensis which much vexed hym And aboue 40. thousande Moscouites were slayne of the Polanes by the ryuer Boristhenes In the yeare of our Lorde 1523. at Tigurie in Helueria in the sixt Nonas of May thrée sunnes were séene togyther and sundrie circles séene togither in heauen after which in the same yeare folowed a reformation of Churches with the casting forth of Idols instituted and stablyshed at Tigurie In Holland the same yeare a great commotion attempted In the yere 1525. before the death of Lewes king of Hungarie in Hungarie were séene thrée sunnes which without doubt signified y thrée kings should contende for the Emperie as Ferdinandus Duke Iohn of Saxonie and the great Lurke In the yeare 1527. in Sweueland thrée sunnes and sundrie celestiall circles were séene In the yere 1528. and in the seauentéene day of
