man_n may_v expect_v for_o good_a or_o evil_n now_o i_o can_v in_o this_o present_a matter_n concern_v the_o influence_n of_o celestial_a body_n upon_o man_n produce_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o

which_o must_v happen_v to_o man_n from_o the_o hour_n of_o his_o birth_n as_o infinite_a many_o do_v believe_v but_o because_o some_o who_o be_v abuse_v by_o this_o judicial_a science_n do_v

which_o aser_n i_o leave_v to_o you_o to_o discover_v of_o the_o truth_n which_o be_v find_v in_o prognostication_n of_o astrologer_n and_o how_o the_o star_n be_v appoint_v by_o god_n for_o sign_n

of_o this_o art_n do_v advance_v that_o point_n as_o much_o as_o they_o can_v and_o do_v dissemble_v in_o all_o other_o whereby_o their_o leasing_n may_v be_v discover_v and_o when_o they_o will_v most_o flout_v fool_n they_o use_v ambiguous_a and_o obscure_a manner_n of_o speech_n like_o the_o answer_n which_o long_o ago_o the_o devil_n make_v by_o oracle_n both_o of_o apollo_n and_o other_o pagan-idol_n for_o such_o kind_n of_o speech_n be_v fit_a to_o strike_v the_o ignorant_a in_o a_o dump_n who_o though_o they_o understand_v not_o the_o prognosticator_n speech_n yet_o according_a as_o thing_n come_v to_o pass_v they_o will_v expound_v they_o to_o their_o mind_n and_o chief_o when_o among_o many_o thing_n some_o one_o do_v stumble_v upon_o some_o like_a appearance_n with_o that_o prediction_n although_o the_o astrologer_n speak_v at_o adventure_n and_o sometime_o understand_v not_o himself_o yet_o this_o be_v certain_a and_o be_v daily_o see_v by_o experience_n that_o indeed_o the_o most_o cunning_a in_o this_o science_n foretell_v many_o thing_n which_o be_v after_o find_v true_a and_o this_o may_v happen_v chief_o in_o three_o manner_n the_o first_o be_v truth_n how_o astrologer_n may_v foretell_v a_o truth_n when_o they_o contain_v themselves_o within_o the_o bound_n of_o astrology_n and_o will_v prognosticate_v nothing_o but_o whereof_o they_o foresee_v the_o cause_n most_o manifest_a in_o nature_n as_o in_o eclipse_n of_o the_o sun_n &_o moon_n the_o change_n thereof_o in_o the_o course_n of_o the_o planet_n their_o aspect_n and_o disposition_n and_o such_o like_a natural_a inclination_n the_o knowledge_n whereof_o they_o may_v by_o their_o art_n attain_v unto_o but_o when_o they_o pass_v far_o it_o happen_v to_o they_o which_o be_v sometime_o see_v in_o bad_a archer_n and_o bowman_n who_o though_o they_o take_v their_o aim_n bad_o neither_o yet_o draw_v right_a may_v nevertheless_o shoot_v so_o often_o that_o by_o great_a chance_n one_o or_o other_o may_v hit_v the_o white_a but_o this_o come_v not_o often_o for_o if_o one_o shall_v reckon_v the_o bad_a shoot_n they_o will_v be_v exceed_v few_o that_o have_v hit_v in_o respect_n of_o the_o rest_n and_o in_o this_o sort_n have_v we_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o our_o speech_n mean_v concern_v the_o copious_a and_o ambigious_a manner_n of_o astrologer_n writing_n and_o speech_n very_o proper_a for_o their_o intention_n final_o god_n in_o his_o secret_a and_o most_o just_a judgement_n do_v many_o time_n permit_v that_o the_o thing_n foretell_v by_o such_o deceiver_n do_v oftentimes_o succeed_v to_o the_o intent_n to_o punish_v the_o curiosity_n and_o vanity_n of_o man_n as_o it_o common_o fall_v out_o and_o have_v in_o old_a time_n be_v know_v by_o the_o oracle_n of_o devil_n and_o by_o the_o prediction_n and_o divination_n of_o necromancer_n and_o invocator_n upon_o evil_a spirit_n for_o they_o who_o rather_o believe_v such_o inventious_a of_o the_o devil_n than_o the_o true_a and_o sacred_a word_n of_o god_n deserve_v to_o be_v hold_v in_o error_n by_o the_o event_n which_o they_o expect_v when_o they_o trust_v to_o the_o father_n of_o lie_v to_o the_o end_n that_o they_o may_v afterward_o receive_v their_o due_a and_o condemnation_n so_o come_v it_o to_o saul_n when_o he_o go_v to_o the_o witch_n 28._o 1._o sam._n 28._o to_o understand_v the_o issue_n and_o event_n of_o the_o philistines_n war_n against_o he_o for_o he_o hear_v that_o which_o he_o desire_v not_o to_o know_v and_o that_o which_o be_v prophesy_v to_o he_o come_v to_o pass_v thus_o in_o three_o manner_n do_v we_o perecive_v that_o astrologer_n may_v oftentimes_o prognosticate_v the_o truth_n but_o because_o some_o suppose_v to_o have_v a_o very_a good_a foundation_n for_o judicial_a astrology_n in_o so_o much_o as_o moses_n say_v speak_v of_o the_o creation_n of_o the_o sun_n and_o moon_n and_o star_n 1._o genes_n 1._o that_o god_n set_v they_o for_o sign_n i_o will_v desire_v they_o to_o consider_v that_o the_o prophet_n expound_v himself_o in_o these_o word_n and_o god_n say_v let_v there_o be_v light_n in_o the_o firmament_n of_o heaven_n sign_n how_o the_o star_n be_v give_v we_o for_o sign_n to_o separate_v the_o day_n from_o the_o night_n and_o let_v they_o be_v for_o sign_n and_o for_o season_n and_o for_o day_n and_o for_o year_n and_o let_v they_o be_v for_o light_n in_o the_o firmament_n of_o the_o heaven_n to_o give_v light_n upon_o the_o earth_n hereby_o it_o be_v apparent_a to_o we_o that_o god_n create_v the_o planet_n to_o distribute_v the_o light_n and_o to_o distinguish_v and_o signify_v unto_o we_o by_o certain_a sign_n the_o time_n season_n year_n month_n day_n and_o night_n for_o all_o political_a public_a and_o private_a order_n for_o it_o be_v most_o necessary_a that_o man_n shall_v direct_v themselves_o according_a to_o time_n and_o season_n but_o although_o the_o star_n be_v give_v we_o for_o sign_n in_o this_o respect_n and_o that_o after_o the_o deluge_n they_o be_v in_o that_o estate_n reordain_v by_o god_n yet_o must_v we_o abstain_v from_o superstition_n &_o too_o much_o curiosity_n which_o abuse_v many_o in_o astrology_n as_o be_v abovesaid_a and_o which_o often_o occasion_v that_o they_o not_o be_v able_a to_o prognosticate_v upon_o every_o cause_n apparent_o by_o the_o star_n according_a to_o their_o desire_n do_v search_n and_o have_v recourse_n to_o other_o mean_n to_o wit_n to_o necromancy_n and_o geomancy_n by_o which_o they_o divine_a what_o they_o listen_v lead_v man_n unto_o

understand_v that_o that_o which_o be_v the_o first_o in_o intention_n be_v the_o last_o in_o execution_n but_o the_o mean_n between_o keep_v a_o like_a order_n do_v succeed_v from_o the_o first_o till_o the_o last_o by_o such_o reason_n therefore_o the_o division_n of_o day_n mention_v in_o genesis_n must_v be_v refer_v not_o to_o the_o time_n but_o to_o the_o order_n which_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v in_o the_o producement_n of_o thing_n create_v thus_o much_o for_o their_o opinion_n but_o other_o contend_v to_o the_o contrary_a and_o maintain_v that_o god_n have_v distinguish_v the_o creation_n of_o the_o world_n by_o certain_a degree_n and_o course_n of_o day_n according_a as_o moses_n describe_v they_o to_o keep_v we_o the_o more_o attentive_a and_o to_o constrain_v we_o to_o abide_v in_o the_o consideration_n of_o his_o work_n for_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o we_o pass_v light_o over_o the_o infinite_a glory_n of_o god_n which_o shine_v unto_o we_o here_o below_o and_o the_o vanity_n of_o our_o understanding_n do_v willing_o carry_v we_o away_o to_o correct_v which_o vice_n his_o divine_a bounty_n will_v temper_v his_o work_n to_o our_o capacity_n and_o they_o which_o hold_v this_o opinion_n have_v note_v how_o the_o text_n before_o cite_v out_o of_o ecclesiasticus_fw-la wherein_o this_o word_n together_o be_v read_v be_v not_o proper_o so_o in_o the_o greek_a copy_n but_o the_o greek_a word_n signify_v likewise_o or_o in_o common_a and_o have_v relation_n not_o to_o the_o time_n but_o to_o the_o universalnes_n and_o community_n of_o creature_n now_o to_o reconcile_v these_o diverse_a opinion_n i_o think_v we_o may_v say_v that_o for_o the_o matter_n and_o rich_a seed_n of_o all_o the_o beauty_n and_o richesses_n of_o the_o univer_n it_o have_v be_v create_v of_o god_n all_o in_o one_o moment_n but_o that_o afterward_o he_o give_v form_n to_o it_o take_v out_o of_o they_o the_o work_n which_o he_o do_v in_o the_o six_o day_n for_o thus_o the_o prophet_n speak_v 1.2_o genes_n 1._o v._n 1.2_o god_n in_o the_o beginning_n create_v the_o heaven_n and_o the_o earth_n and_o the_o earth_n be_v without_o form_n and_o void_a and_o darkness_n be_v upon_o the_o deep_a and_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n move_v upon_o the_o water_n behold_v then_o the_o matter_n of_o this_o all_o which_o have_v his_o be_v all_o at_o once_o the_o

in_o the_o mean_a while_o be_v sustain_v by_o the_o secret_a power_n of_o god_n afterward_o when_o moses_n add_v then_o god_n say_v let_v there_o be_v light_n 3.4.5_o verse_n 3.4.5_o and_o there_o be_v light_a and_o god_n see_v the_o light_n that_o it_o be_v good_a and_o god_n separate_v the_o light_n from_o the_o darkness_n and_o god_n call_v the_o light_a day_n and_o the_o darkness_n he_o call_v night_n so_o the_o evening_n &_o the_o morning_n be_v the_o first_o day_n in_o this_o i_o say_v and_o in_o all_o the_o rest_n which_o ensue_v concern_v the_o work_n of_o god_n in_o the_o five_o

contain_v in_o the_o whole_a vnivers_n see_v then_o how_o we_o may_v resolve_v this_o question_n whether_o all_o thing_n be_v create_v together_o or_o in_o diverse_a day_n and_o thus_o we_o may_v
