3. Thirdly Place the point of the Compass next in the midest of the root of the little finger as in the preceeding examples and where that toucheth the vital line is the demention of thirty years which according to the greatest Masters in this Science falls in the midst of the vital line so that there will appear a perfect Geometrical proportion from this point to the wrist and from this point to the supream angle the beginning of the vitall line 4. Fourthly Fix the foot of your Compasse in the midst of the root of the fore-finger as is before said and extend the other point to the outside of the little finger and draw a line to the line of life over the percussion of the hand and this shall demonstrate the fortieth year of age 5. Fifthly Which is chiefly to be Noted because some differ in opinion but our resolve is the Compasse being fixt as before extend the other part to the end of the Mensal or Table-line and draw a line over the Percussion of the hand to contact or touch the line of Life and this point in mensuration shall constitute the fiftiteh year of age 6. Sixthly The foot of the Compass fixt as before consider upon the outside of the percussion of the hand just the same amplitude of space that was betwixt the years fifty and forty before and from that part draw a line to the line of life and where that point doth touch there let be noted the sixtieth year of life which method will make unequal proportions in the line of life which must be allowed and not otherwise expected yet constitute distinctly the years as you see in the following figure 7. Seventhly In the next place if a third part of the amplitude be taken away upon the line of life i. e. if by removing your compass from the point sixty years the space of two thirds of the last demention further upon the line of life there you shall observe the 70. year and by removing two thirds from that further shall note the 80. year of age and by removing the foot of the compass two thirds more of the last demention shall make the bound of the 90. year and in like manner to the hundredth and beyond if such age be in the hand by this method most easily may be observed the exact times of mans age upon the vital line which hitherto under correction no man hath found out nor attempted without the ship-wrack and loss of their lâ—bours THe true mensuration of the vital line thus demonstated behold the figure next are observable the Geometrical proportions of the mensal and natural lines These two as they differ in method and operation from the vitall line so they hold a uniformity as to mensuration between themselves being both to be equally divided as to their longitude into three equal proportion are parts which parts respect the three principal ages of man the first part proportionating the first twenty five years of mans life the next the second twenty five years which brings our life to fifty years the last proportionating the last twenty five years which brings our age to seventy five years or the utmost term of Life But here is cheifly and warily to be noted that these lines are not in measure alwayes to be considered as they are found in the hands but to be considered in measure according to their proper natural certain proportion that they should bear in the hand as thus the midle natural line ought to begin at the Supream Angle or the Thenar part of the hand between the root of the pollex and the Index finger upon the midle of the mount of the Index and to extend it quite cross the hand over-against the midle of the mount of the Auricular or little finger and just there to terminate which if it be found longer or shorter it implyes the extreams of fortune The mensal or Table-line ought to ascend beyond the mount of the midle finger if it be longer or shotter of greater or lesser quantity it then answers not to the right proportionate rules of mensuration for the proportionate measure of the midle natural line for the first age or term of years viz. twenty five it is to be measured from the beginning of the line to the opposite place just against the midle of the mount to the midle finger for the first twenty five years and for the next twenty five years measure from the foresaid place of the midle finger over against the midst of the mount of the Ring-finger what remains of the line is to be considered for the remaining term of Life the Mensal or Table-line for the first twenty five years of age is to be measured from the beginning thereof which is on the out-side of the hand unto that part of the line which is just against the midle of the Auricular or little finger for the second age or space of life the next twenty five years is to be measured from the last point over against the mount of the little finger to the point of the line just against the midst of the mount of the Annular or Ring-finger as appears in the fore-going figure the remainder of this Table-line is to be considered for the remaining part of life according to the former proportion so that here you may see plainly that this proportionate mensuration is rational and may give apt conjectures of the times of Life and length thereof as also by help of this mensuration predictions are made judgements given of Dignities Offices Honour Riches and good Fortune when and in what times of a mans age such or such a thing shall come to pass as also if marks in the hand appear signifying Death Sickness Imprisonment Poverty or any other mischance it is discerned according to the position of the several marks in the hand commensurately proportionated according to the fore said dimention their places and significations being considered as to good or bad As for example in the next following hand I have observed the most principal marks that in any hand signifie a violent death either by Hanging Drowning Heading by Wound or other mischance Now any of these being found in the hand of any person let them be considered in reference to the part of the hand and place they are found in and by this former measure of the Lines you will see plainly at what years of age such and such a mischance shall happ and the occasions thereunto conducing that thereby by prayer and watchful diligence it may be prevented Behold the following Hand and the variety of Characters therein posited IN the next place Courteous Reader I shall present you by way of Demonstation all those principal Marks or Characters which in the hand of any person signify Riches and according to the time of age in obtaining and injoying of them you must consider the former mensuration yet let me premise this that finding any of these
Characters in your hands signifying Riches you presume not to suppose such a necessity in nature as will miraculously accomplish this end no there is required the use of your Reason industry and pains for so saith Divine Writ it is the Almighties injunction Genesis 3. Cap. 9. In sudore vultus tui vescitor cibo donec revertaris in humum Honest policy and prudent industry must be carried on by us for the idle person saith Solomon Esuriet shall suffer hunger yet where these following Characters are found they either have an inclination to this frugallity or else the old Proverb is verified fortuna favet fatuos fooles have fortune though this be sometimes yet so rare that it ought not to incline us or any to a Supine segnitions stupidity behold the figures following All the Principal Observations in the hand that signify Riches or good Fortune by play or otherwise I shall deliver in sixty nine Aphorismes most of which you may see visibly Demonstrated in the two foregoing hands as also Honour or Magistracy 1 THe Letter A. in the root of the Index or fore-finger promiseth much Riches to him that is poor 2. G. In the mount of the hand noteth the man to be made Rich by means of Princes Nobles Great Persons or Women 3. A certain line passing the Rasetta from the root of the arme touching the line of life or the natural line denotes multiplication of Riches 4. The Vital line putting forth Branches towards the Supream Angle signifies Riches with Honour 5. The Mensal or Table-line straight and subtill in the end towards the index or fore-finger signifieth Rule and aboundance of Substance 6. The Mensal casting forth straight and right lines towards the supream angle and not impedited promiseth Honours with Riches 7. The Sister of the line of life continued in the mount of the thumb with a triangle towards the palm of the hand well coloured and proportioned extended to the wrist signifies Riches in the whole course of life and where this line fails according to the rules of the former demensions there also Riches and prosperity fails at those proportionate times 8. Small lines well coloured proceeding from the root of the fore-finger pointing towards the Supream angle promise increase of Substance and Honour from Persons of much excellency 9. Two lines touching in the nature of an Acute-Angle on the mount of the midle finger or the fore finger promiseth Riches and good to come for the future 10. Lines right and straight stretching themselves from the Radix or outside of the hand in the mount and brawn of the hand of good form and colour these denuntiate a continued good fortune 11. A Character like a Star upon the Thenar or outfide of the Index or fore-finger shews a man to be Luxurious yet to come to riches and some degree of Honour by womens-means 12. A Line in the wrist continued straight and well coloured going cross between the arme and the hand signifies to him that hath Riches the perpetuity and continuance of them and to him that is in poverty that hath such a line the may expect better fortune especially if this line and its Branches be continued right and straight and not abrupted or broken 13. A Character like a Sheild triangle or of a sperical form on the mount of the Sun denotes an honest life and promiseth perpetual and durable Riches 14. The Letter B. in the mount of Jupiter promiseth much Riches and great fortune 15. A Character like a Cross or Star in or near the vital line towards the wrist promiseth riches in old age 16. A Star or Stars appearing in the beginning of the line of Life or cutting the Vital Line especially if two stars appear they demonstrate the person glorious rich wealthy 17. Many lines from the root of the thumb between the thumb and the line of Life pointing towards the Ring-finger promiseth great Riches 18. A Crosse under the Natural Line signifies the acquisition of riches but with great labour and industry of the hand 19. Eminent rising like Caruncles or warts of the line of life signifies Riches 20. A Line pointing from the Mensal between the index and the midle finger shews the person to be favoured by fortune yet certifies withal that the person through dissimulation and flattery useth one only Friend as the rise to his fortunes 21. The Mensal or Table-line ending between the Index and the midle finger promiseth a sufficiency of all necessaries respecting humane Life 22. A Line falling between the midle finger and Ring-finger touching the roots and joyned to another on the mount of the midle finger pointing to the midle finger it indicates much future good the same if it point to the mount of Jupiter 23. A Line well disposed well coloured and thick beginning between the root of the little finger and Ring-finger and from thence descending and pointing towards the Mensal declares an excellent State of fortune Good Large and full of Riches 24. Lines from the out-fide of the Percussion of the hand Right Straight and extended on the brawn of the hand if they be well coloured they promise good fortune to him or her that have been long vexed with bad 25. The Line of the Sun or magestry of Ingenuity of Regallity of Fame of Honour and Riches extending with a trine proportion to the root of the Annular or Ring-finger consignifies Riches especially if the mount of the finger be well formed 26. A Triangle Aequilateral and a semi-circle in the supream angle annexed to the Vital whose points or hornes respect the Vital line Denuntiate a gradual augmentation of good fortune 27. Lines like Crosses in the first joynt of the thumb certainly signifie Riches 28. Little lines well coloured passing from the root of the index over the mount of the midle finger signifie good fortune by how much the nearer they are so much the more good is prenoted with increase and that he should receive the same from some Excellent and Honourable Person and these often times signifie Ecclesiastical Honour and preferment 29. A Line or lines under the root of the midle finger transverse without incission or being cut by any other lines note much good and the superlative of fortune 30. The Line of Saturn running from the wrist and continued not intersected and of good colour argues prosperity and faelicity even unto death 31. The Letter D. in the Field of Mars signifieth good fortune to him that hath it 32. The Saturnine-Line makeing a trine proportion from the wrist extending it self straight to the root of the Ring-finger by the side of the Auricular or little finger designeth prosperity 33. Lines going from the natural Line to the Table-line making a triangle with the Table-line Goods and Riches to be given him 34. A Star in the quadrangle or table near the natural line promiseth Riches and Substance in its defined time if he have been poor he shall be made Rich and want nothing
because he shall enjoy the wealth of others 35. A Red Star in the midle of the Quadrangle and broad in the extremities this intimates a man infinite solicitous about such Riches which he shall never attain 36 A Crosse in the Quadrangle noteth poverty in the first age in the second not over rich but in the third age Want 37. The Natural line extending it self over the mount or percussion of the hand circular denotes indifferent Riches in young years but in the last age without great providence want 38. A right line and of good colour from the beginning of the natural line and ending at the root of the index promiseth Riches although fortune her self should be opposite yet chiefly in the first age 39. The former line extended to the root of the midle finger signifies Riches in the second age of Life 40. If the same line extend to the Ring-finger or the little finger then Riches will come in the last age 41. Four lines equally distant in the side of the mount of the thumb towards the Arm or Wrist ettending themselves towards the most eminent parts of that mount it is a signe of Honour and Riches in the first age a Star there Idem 42. If the foresaid lines are near the juncture of the thumb the former good fortune will come in the second age 43. If the foresaid lines are near the nail of the thumb then the said Honour and Riches come in old age 44. Several lines in the wrist cutting themselves in a due proportionate distance like dice or chequerwork promise Goods and Riches in old age 45. A Star or Triangle in the wrist well form'd and dispos'd denotes Riches in old age 46. Four lines in the wrist cross the arm the two superiour next the hand being larger then the other inferiour the inferiour next the arme being subtill and small they promise Substance and Copious Riches to midle age but after midle age expect a Diminution of Riches and debility of strength 47. The two inferiour lines if they are large and well formed and the two superiour be small and slender they denote eighty years of age and that in the first and second age the person shall experience poverty after that Augmentation of estate 48. If the first line be grosse and the second slender the third again grosse and full and the fourth subtil and small In the first age is promised Fortitude and Riches and in the second age a deminution of both and so likewise of the other be they full or small alwayes observing that the grosse and full lines signifie good and increase and the small Diminution and decrease of good fortune and every line in the wrist represents the time of twenty years 49. If the first line in the wrist be discontinued and crooked and the rest strait and right debillity and egenity is fignified in the first age and the remainder prosperous and happy 50. If Characters like angles be found in the wrist or between the lines they denote debillity of Life and Goods and that the person shall be laborious without honour of mean wit and ful of vice 51. A Shield Triangle or sperical form in the mount of the Index well formed and conditioned if his Condition was never so poor from Infancy to the end of youth yet he shall be opulent and Rich. 52. A. B. C. or D. In the mount of the little finger evil coloured they denounce poverty to midle age and afterwards riches to the end of life 53. The Mensal line much branchy and the branches tending towards the superiour part of the hand they attest an affluence of all things and the more the branches are extended the more in old age Riches shall abound but if they cease their extention the abundance of Riches shall cease 54 Slender branches in the end of the Mensall-line verging towards the superiour part of the hand being well coloured they signify a restauration of goods in the second age of life 55. The Mensal-line sorked in the ends intimates the person to sustain a laborious life even untill twenty years of age afterwards his sorrrows ceasing he shall exprieence much increase of good fortune 56. The triangle flexed and higher then the angle of life it denotes poverty and debillity of life yet in old age he shall be delivered from his penury 57. Branches passing from the line of life transiting the triangle also cutting the natural line after adversity prosperity shall succeed 58. Crosses or stars in the mount of the hand denote the acquisition of riches with great labour but in old age with honour 59. All marks upon the mount of Jupiter which is the root of the fore-finger except like ladders or grid-irons signifie Ecclesiastical preferment and benefit by Ecclesiastical persons 60. Two lines crosse the mount of Mercury the person is fortunate 61. Two Stars or Crosses or little lines like minnum's at the root of the Ring-finger on the mount promise wealth by womens means 62. Two lines deep and straight Crossing the first joynt of the Ring-finger plainly and certainly discovers much riches by wives 63. The Letter B. in the triangle promiseth Riches and familiarity with Princes 64. A Star upon the mount of Jupiter or the Sun promiseth Dignity Princely Regency or a Crown 65. A Line from the root of the little finger to the second or third joynt of good and equal proportion and the mount well proportionated and not afflicted promiseth preferment and Magistracy to the person 66. Many short and even cutting transverse the midle Natural line or the Hepatika that person is put upon much business and designed to places of Magistracy and Honour 67. Many small and clear lines in the finger of Mercury the person is addicted to Musick and if he practice it he grows rich thereby especially if he have other good marks in his hand these lines also signify one of a close mind secret Spirit 68. The mount of the thumb being full of little rimularies or clests signifies Faelicity and good Fortune in Cattel 69. In the figure before going observe the mount of the thumb and those many grosse short and little lines within the Circle This is the Character of an ungrateful person and one that will borrow or take all you will give him but never give you thanks or pay The following Aphorismes and Hands shall demonstrate poverty losse and universal misfortune by Imprisonment and many other wayes 1 All Mark like a ladder depainted in the mount of the fore-finger signifies a man poor suffering losse and dammage 2. The vital line short sending branches below notes poverty with ill fortune and to be deceived by his own Servants and Strangers 3. The Mensal line sending hairy branches towards the table denotes losse misery and ill fortune 4. The Natural line touching in circular manner the mensal demonstrateth great losses and sad misfortunes 5. The mensal line naked without branches and touching the root of the index
good digestion a right proportion of the Radicals and vitals and consequently long life It is to be observed that the term or end of this table line is perfected two wayes some say if it end against the midle of the mount of the midle finger diametrically it s of the best signification others that if it extend or touch the beginning of the mount of the Index especially if it incline towards the root thereof it s of special signification but either of these opinions are true and the termination or ending good so the line be of equall form and well coloured 13. The space of the wrist clear and well coloured signifies a good complexion and by consequence length of life 14. The Tubercle or mount of the thumb decently round fair and well coloured with a good complexion confirm a long life the same when all the mounts of the hand and fingers are of a decent eminency and well proportioned they indicate long life 15. The triangle Aequilaterally and well proportioned if it be of clear fair lines and well proportionated it is a signe of equality of humours good temperament and so consequently long life 16. The Sister of the line of life arising from the supream angle passing by the mount of the thumb and extending near so far as the wrist of the hand or there abouts it is a sign of long life and luxurie 17. Corvus is of opinion that when the natural line passeth the mount of the hand it argueth long life with want poverty and evil complexion of humours for nature is signified to be superfluous herein 18. Few lines in the mount of Venus or the thumb shew a rarity of infirmities health of parts and consequently long life 19. The Table line casting two or more branches to the midle of the index and line of life argues long life 20. Teeth big thick or long argueth long life no principal cause impediating for amongst the Phisiognomists there is not a signe of such excellency and valour as that which concludeth simply without any other additional Significations because it shews the specifical and occult virtue to be well fixed and also representing the vivacity and strength of the radical moisture and the vitallity of the Natural Spirits as also the strength of spermatical Spirits from the first of Generation It oft-times is the practise of ignorant illiterate people to judge of the length of life without the concordency of causes and comparing one to another as likewise it is an errour in them that pretend to know the period of life by any other way or means then by those grounds and rules of mensuration before in this work propos'd the common way that Tricassus Cocles and others have used refer to the common ages of man seventy years beyond which they give no grounds or rules of judging when as we see by experience that many persons live to eighty ninety or a hundred years which by our Rules of Mensuration may be observed upon the line of Life many who might happily protract their dayes to a great age by intemperancy anticipate the same and through indiscretion abreviate and shorten that sweet time which otherwise they might comfortably enjoy would they with reason resist their natural inclinations therefore we ought not rashly and unadvisedly judge the time of life because the Almighty hath determined the period beyond which a man cannot passe as he hath likewise delineated in the hand as may plainly be read but it is no where said that a man may not abreviate by anticipation the time of his life if he resist not the exorbitant inclinations of Nature wherefore in judging of Life or Death let our reason carefully discern between a man of a temperate and intemperate life 21. Fair Lines in the root of the Index or forefinger arising from the root of the finger over the mount Ecclesiastical preferments or stretching towards the root of the finger from the supream angle declares long life Ecclesiastical or Law-Preferments 22. Two or three little lines from the root of the fore-finger or lines paralel or a perfect crosse or a Star or a round sperical figure all argue long life and Ecclesiastical preferments to prelacy or the like 23. A Star without-side the index-finger discovers a man to be luxurious Fortune by women yet shall have good fortune by women and come to great Honour and Riches by them and long life 24. The Letter C. or a semicircle on the mount of Jupiter promiseth long life and good fortune and riches by women 25. Certain little lines parralel to each other on the mount of the Annular or Ring-finger or little lines like Crosses or Stars promise Riches and good Fortune by women 26. Two lines deep and straight on the first joynt of the Ring-finger doth most certainly promise much wealth by wives 27. Four lines going over the wrist transverse and straight Of such that shall receive Inheritances by the death of others signifie Honour Riches and Inheritance by the death of others 28. If there appear on the hand near the wrist a triangle or two with Stars or lines and make an accute angle these signifie long life and great Inheritance from or by the dead and promise in age Honour Riches and a Quiet life and the more good the more Angles Lines and Stars are found therein 29. Two lines from the first joynt of the thumb towards the line of life these promise great Inheritance by succession from the dead but if there be but one line then small Inheritance is signified but the more in number they are and of good appearance the more the more greater good they signifie yet not without contentions law-suites and controversies 30. A star in any part of the triangle promiseth the party to gain inheritance of the dead and the more Stars the oftner as in the figure following 31. The Sister of the Naturall Line as in the figure following clear and well appeasing signifies inheritance to come how much the better the line appears so much the greater the inheritance 32. Various lines chequer-wise appearing in the wrist at a formall distance prenuntiate Inheritance to come 32. A Star or triangle in the wrist of the hand presages future Inheritance but not till old age or there abouts 33. Lines extending themselves from the root of the thumb Of the quantity of Wives or Husbands over the mount thereof so many as there are in the hand of a man so many Wives or Women as Wives he shall have the same in a woman so many husbands or lovers-like husbands she shall have if these lines be right extended and fair so many Wives or Husbands the person shall be married unto but if one line be greater then the rest then the Man shall have one Wife or the Woman one Husband greater in Riches and Dignity then the rest 34. As many lines as cut the first joynt of the Ring-finger as appears in the
