vvith his vvhole army at a skyrmishe fought at Canna It vvas also Aphricanus his hap to be banished his countrey and to dye in exile It vvas CATVLVS his chaunce to bee slayne of his mortall enemy MARIVS The two valiaunte SCYPIOES lost their liues in Spayne Yea and vvee see dayly the suddayne rysing of many men from their lowe Estate to the highest degrees of dignity as IPHICRATES a Coblers sonne aduaunced to bee a Captayne vnder ARTAXERZES king of Persia RVMENES CARDIANVS borne in Peloponesus a Carters son aftervvards made Cōusay lor to ALEXANDER the greate AGATHOCLES a Potters son aftervvards chiefe of Syracusa IVLIVS LICINIVS a Husband mans son aftervvards Gouernor of Dacia Yea and many contraryvvise being Royally and nobly borne by fatall destiny haue fell from aloft as ALCIBIADES POMPEYE yea PTOLOMEVS the Aegyptian king vvhich in hys ruffe and youthfull dayes banquetted feasted dayly a Thowsand Guestes ordinarely seruinge them all in their Golden Plate and yet hee himselfe aftervvardes as he grevve olde vvas dryuen to that extremity that he vvas faine to be sustayned relieued at other mens handes very barely and coursly Yea and besides this many haue such cruell destinye that as soone as they bee borne they are subiect to be swallowed and soopt vp straightwais of some one daūger or other as was SEMIRAMIS borne of a noble bloude and PYRRHVS afterwards King of the Epirotet Which both were throwen out cast frō their frends being Sucklings and Infants and yet by fate of Fortune and by great prouidence preserued euen at the very dent brym of present and Imminent destruction By such meanes also was CYRVS so hurled of from his friends sustayned nourished by the meanes of a Bitche so was TELEPHVS by a Harte PELIAS Son to NEPTVNVS by a Mare PARIS by a she Beare AEGYSTVS by a she Goate ROMVLVS and REMVS by a she Woulfe In the wonderfull deliuery dealing vvhereof vvhat kinde of Fate and Prouidence this and an Infinite number such lyke was I referre the same gentle reader to thine owne determination Whereof this Treatise if thou vouchsafest the thorough Readinge thereof doth shewe forth both in proofe in example more aboundantly The name also vvhich I haue gieuen to this booke callinge it the Dyall of Destiny doth well enough as I thinke agree to the purpose For Dyall vyise it goeth from poynte poynte and frō Degree to Degree shewing the subiection of euery eche kinde to his sundry and seuerall Superior Planet Which labos of mine such as it is receyue thou thankfully And thē haue I that Recompence that I doe require Fare well To the scornefull sort of Scycophantes POLLIO playe not the POLYPRAGMON or Busie body I wys it becommeth you not The Parrat and Popiniaye playe such partes for Pray sake rather then of property but the Cornish Choughs and Carrenly Crovves haue it of custome If youre wonte bee such it is worse then I wyshe it were And then I perceiue this Prouerbe is playne Si Coruus posset tacitus pasci haberet plus dapis But like Lyps like Lettice Dayneties surely desire or looke you for none till that your maners be mended OF THE CONcord or common felowship of the seuen Planets as also of their breadefull debate and discorde IT is manyfest and approued by argumentes of force and reasons of more secret and hid phylosophy likewise by demonstration and conclusions Mathematicall that all Creatures whatsoeuer whych haue their being essence and preseruation vpon the face of the whole Earth or els be contayned within the Regions or Precinct of the Ayre aboue and subiected vnder the circle or Sphere of the Moone haue receiue their influence of the higher and more Celestiall hodies or Planets and after a certayne sorte sayth Proclus they resi depend of them And heerem his saying seemed not to bee amisse for that experience playnly teacheth vs and we also see that there is nothinge heere belowe so able stronge or riche of it selfe that being voyde or destitute of the fauour or furtheraunce of the celestiall bodies aboue can be well pleased and contented with it selfe Agrippa is in that opinion that at the former constitution or first breedinge of euery ech thinge both that which lyueth as also that which is deuoyde of lyfe as likewise at the committure or composition of the Clements for the morease of any baser kindes the bountifulnes of certayne planets is such oftentimes that besides the beneficialnesse of the owne nature of the thinges themselues which worketh alwayes liberally there is a further free gyft bestowed vpon euery the sayd thinges and kindes by the Planets themselues and the same more rightly or preciously whē as they meete together in more happy signe or be in higher Horoscope or Ascendent Plato wyth his Consectaryes doe affyrme that all these Daughters or progeny of Dame Nature are euery one of them first sealed as it were marked of the starres and Planets aboue whereby in euery thing they haue to chalenge their owne And euen as by God the greatest mightiest of all and the first and principall cause of all things all creatures are disposed generally to a like frame and customable order of the selfe same kinde so in lyke sorte by the seconde causes the Planets although inferiours yet working causes all things here vnderueath are in more speciall sorte sealed and ensampled Easy it is to see that there is no one parte in all the whole proportion workmanship of mans body that is not ruled or disposed by some one Planet or other to affectate that most of all other thinges which the superior force doth frame them and enclyne them vnto so that vnto me all the whole body of man as also the bodies of all other creatures here below seeme to be possessed busied and as it were incensed and set on worke by them As for example To begin with Sol or the Sunne it is apparant how he holdeth gouerneth and hath in possession the Braynes and forepart of the head the heart the marrow the right Eye the vitall Spirite or breath of life likewise the Mouth the tongue and all other the Organes or instruments of sense or feeling besides this he chalengeth the hands the feete the Synewes the Imagination and whole operation of the powre phantasticall The Moone likewise hath in her subiectiō ordreth after a certayne sorte all the whole body in such wise as both the humors and moysture both naturall and accidental doth either abounde in them or dyminishe and lessen according to her prime and wane And whereas shee thus worketh generally in all sortes according to her owne variation so in the speciall members and partes of the body shee especially ruleth in the Lunges and dealeth also with a great portion of the Brayne Hers is also the Marrow of the Backbone as also the stomacke the lest Eye with all the other partes that yeelde forth auoyde the excrementes and
