hath theyr generacions disposicyons vertues and proprietyes of the Sonne Moone and Sterres so that euery herbe hathe certayne Sterres appropryate and addicte vnto them of whom they receyue suche influence and operacyon as is accordynge to the nature of the Sterres the whiche is knowen of longe tyme by dayly experience in consideryng theyr mouinges their cōiunctions and aspectes And also markyng theyr influences and propertes at such lyke tymes aforsaid Also by further experiēce the Phylosopher hath founde forth seuen Sterres orrotical in seuen seueral heauens or speres and of sundrye influences and operacions and accordynge to suche men of such lyke condycyon they haue gyuen them names as Saturne Iupiter and Mars and so furth Also all the rest of the Sterres are fyxed in the eyght heauen or spere emonges whom are ymagened xii beastes called sygnes and. xxviii other constellacions and by suche lyke experyence of influences hath named a certayne nōber of Sterres to be a Ramme to be a Bull to be a Lyon to be a Scorpion to be a Beare to be a Dogge and so forth Also the heauenlye Sterres hath certayne commyxtion with the elementes and the Elementes with them so that all thynges made of the Elementes receyueth certayne qualytes and operacions sensible by an Elementall power and also they receyue certayne operacyons and vertues insencible and occulte by a celestiall and heauenly power as all herbes and medecines solutisse are either hote dry moyst or colde by the elementall power and also by the celestyal power some purge color some melancoly some fleume and some from the head some from the stomake some from the herte some from the lyuer and so forth of the whiche no man knoweth no other cause but the alonely propertye and vertue of the heauens Also furthermore it is knowne and experte howe the planetes sygnes and constellacions doth worke perticulerly in diuers partes of mans bodye and specially the seuen planetes vnto whose influence all other Sterres are obedyente and agreable furthermore knowe that the Sonne and Moone are cheife of al other planetes for the Sonne is the minister of al lyuely propertye and giueth al thinges lyfe and makethe all herbes to growe tyl they come to their perfection Also the Sonne draweth first frō the roote the lyuely moysture that maketh the herbe to growe wax Saturne holdeth the mater together in the roote stalke and leaues Iupiter geueth the temperature benefete shap and fasshyon and the ayrie humour and smell Mars hardeneth and gyueth the wooddy stalkes and strength The Sonne gyueth a

worlde the whiche at the proper instant of the creatyon he hath infused these symylitudes and ymages beynge euen percelles and powers of the Godhead in all his creatures and as he hathe made all thynges of nought so are yet al thīgꝭ nought the whiche wanteth these edees similitudes ymages and powers of the Godheade for he is Omnia in omnibus secondarye he hath create instrumentes as second causes the which are the Sonne Moone and Sterres whose matter influence and operacyons is nothynge but by his power infused the which he hath made alonelye to declare his glory and hyghe workemanshippe to his intellectyfe creatnes Also knowe that the Sonne is the princypall workeman of God and the planetes are instrumentes and toles wherewith the Sonne worketh and the signes and constellations are other meane instrumentes to the planetes and the Element are the mater that they worke vpon and all thynges made of the foure elementes are the substaunces and bodyes with lyfe schape faryon that they make of the Elementes as man beast fyshe fowle herbe and stone Also knowe that the Moone is the lowest of all the planetes and next to the Elementes hauynge the lest and swyftest course of all the other planetes and is the mediatrix cariare and daily instrumentes and cōueyre of the vertues and propertyes of al the other planetes from the one to the other and is also the commixter and ioynere together of all the heauens and elementes as by example when the Sonne commeth to vs warde in sprynge tyme and at all other tymes he gyuethe lyghte to all the Sterres and planetes and this lyght by an occulte vertue is mouyng and lyuely and is cōueyed by the Moone to the element of the fyre and there is made a lyuely heate Also the Moone and the elemente of the fyre doth conuey it to the elemētes of the ayre where it is made a temperate lyuely heate and from the ayre to the water and so receyueth an humorall moisture in conceruing the temperate liuely heate fynallye the earthe the whiche is the mother and matter of all the other thinges and this liuely hete entrynge and openynge the pores of the earth and also of the rootes and seedes of herbes geueth
