He counteth the number of the starres calleth them all by their names AT LONDON Printed at the widdow Charlewoods house for Richard Watkins Anno. 1593. TO THE RIGHT HONOVRABLE VERTVOVS AND LEARNED LORD HENRY Earle of Northumberland * Lorde Percie Lucie Brian Fitzpaine and Poynings Lord of the Honors of Cockermouth and Petworth c. Knight of the most honorable order of the GARTER All true felicitie both in thys life and in the worlde to come most hartily wished IF that saying of Plato right noble Lorde be true that our Countrey challengeth an especiall interest in our very vttermost abilitie which any way may tend to profit benefite the same then will it sufficiently countenaunce the poore receiued Talent of myne in that being so strictly charged by so great and graue a Phylosopher I ought not to burie in obliuion my knowledge whatsoeuer but rather as freely bestow mine endeuour on her as shee did franckly impart the light thereof to me For though it be a common phrase in the mouthes of men altogether ignorant in the precious value and profite of Sciences That the studie of Letters is a bottomlesse Gulfe and so long and so vneasie a iourney that they which rashly thinke to finish it oftentimes are drowned in the mid-way and so vnder this pretence account it better not to know much yea nothing at all Against such slothful suggesters of men in a deadly obscuritie while they lyue let mee auouch that saying of Aristotle Man sayth he was created to vnderstande and to doe for knowledge begetteth iudgement and by iudgement men execute all good and vertuous actions O Science sayth Plato howe would men loue thee if they did but knowe thee for euen as health is the conseruation of the body so is knowledge the sure and onely safe-garder of the soule And Cicero beeing of the same opinion sayth O knowledge the guide of our life the onely cause of vertue and enemie to vice What is the life of man without thee If then right learned Lord such a maine current streame of vnconquerable reason washeth to nothing the emptie and confused wits of such as are enemies to the excellencie of Arte and maketh most fertile like the ouer-flowings of Nylus the iudgements of thē that are gouerned thereby though farre from me be the thought of arrogating the very least tytle of Arte to my selfe yet as one that desires to receiue the breath of life from her sacred dwelling and holdes with the learned in all ages that man is as a bruite beast without her then let me thus farre presume vnder your noble fauour to shewe that I haue not altogether trewanted in my life time but howe I haue bestowed those permitted howers of exercise that more waighty affaires in the world affoorded me both to declare my reuerende zeale to so high a misterie and vnfeyned affection I beare to your honor The worke was first written in French by an excellent Scholler Oger Ferrier a Physition borne in Tolouze dedicated to Queene Katherine of Fraunce mother to the King that last deceassed And beeing now by me changed into an English habite that it might receiue no indignitie by dedication I haue stampt your noble name in the fore-head thereof that it may bee sayde in despight of the proudest carper or controller Thys is the God-chylde of a peerelesse God-father And as I doubt not of your honourable acceptauce so I am likewise perswaded that what hath wanted on my behalfe in translation or any other imperfection beside shall be as nobly censured in which resolution I humbly kisse your hand and continue as forward in affection as any to your Honours welfare Thomas Kelway One of her Highnesse Trumpets in ordinarie TO THE COVRTEVS Reader I Am to request gentle Reader one fauour at thy hande that if this worke of the iudgement of Natiuities seeme harsh and vnpleasant to thee thou wouldest not therefore wound the same with iniurious words to charge thy selfe with more follie then needes but if thou finde it aboue thy knowledge or capacitie saie as honest minded Chion said Let my betters iudge of these matters For I must and do confesse that it is not a Booke for euerie mans reading and hee that reades with derision because he vnderstands not must blame his owne insufficiencie and not the booke for if hee could learne as much in an hower as cost a learned man many yeeres to compasse then would his humor be pleased and the worke not reproched But let such loyterers vnderstand that knowledge requires the whole circuit of a mans life and liue he neuer so long yet may he learne but if it might be attained in a Sommers daie a number would be excellent that through default thereof remaineth vtterly ignorant To vse many words I account needlesse knowing that the reproofe of the vnlearned is rather the badge of their owne weake braine then any blemish to a worke of worth Therefore let them censure as they please the learned I know will iudge like themselues of whom I had rather be deseruedly controlled then by the other be ignorantly commended Thomas Kelway ❧ The Table of the matters in this present Treatise The first Booke OF the Celestiall figure of a Natiuitie Fol. 1.
