Most of them were found in the reignes of Edward the fourth, and Henry the eighth, Kings of England, and are these which follow: viz. 1. Mother Shiptons prophesies. 2. The blind mans prophesie. 3. Ignatius Loyala - 4. Sybilla's prophesie. 5. Merlins prophesie. 6. Orwell Bins prophesie. 7. M. Brightmans prophesie. 8. M. Giftheils prophesie. With five other prophesies, never before printed. Whereunto is added the predictions of M. John Saltmarsh, to his Excellency the Lord Fairfax, and the Councell of his army: as also the manner of his death.
