Richard should lose his Crown and be slain And riding over the Bridge his left foot struck upon a stump of wood which the old man hearing said Even so shall his head at his return back hit on the same place which so came to pass And a Nobleman that carried the Moon for his Colours revolted from K.

Coles and are to be sold at his Shop in Vine-street on Saffron-Hill neer Hatton-garden 1678. The Prophesie of Shipton's wife in the time of Henry the Eighth Note that this Prophesie was never exactly Printed before WHEN she heard that King Henry the 8. should be King and Cardinal Wolsey should be at York she said that Cardinal Wolsey should never come to York Which the King and the Cardinal hearing being angry sent the Duke of Suffolk and the L. Darcy to her who came with their men disguised to the King's house near York where leaving their men they went to Mr. Besly in York and desired him to go with them to Mother Shipton's house where when they came they knocked at the door she said Come in Mr. Besly and those honourable Lords with you and Mr. Besly would have put in the Lords before him but she said Come in Mr. Besly you know the way but they do not This they thought strange that she should know them and never saw them then they went into the house where there was a great fire and they drank and were very merry Mother Shipton said the Duke if you knew what we came about you would not bid us so welcome She said the Messenger should not be hanged Mother Shipton said the Duke you said the Cardinal should never see York Yea said she I said he might see York but never come at it But said the Duke when he comes to York thou shalt be burned We shall see that said she and plucking her Handkerchief off her head she threw it into the fire and it would not burn then she took her staff and turned it into the fire and it would not burn then she took and put it on again Then said the Duke what mean you by this She replied If this had burned I might have burned Mother Shipton quoth the Duke what think you of me My Lord said she the time will come (a) The Duke was afterward beheaded you will be as low as I am and that is a low one indeed My Lord Piercy said and what think you of me My Lord said she Shoe your Horse in the quick and you shall do well but your (b) This proved true for he rose in rebellion in the North and by not flying when he might he was taken and beheaded in York where his Body was buried and his Head was stollen away and carried into France tempore Eliz. Reg. body will be buried in York Pavement and your head shall be stoln from the Bar and carried into France At which they all laugh'd saying That would be a great lop between the Head and the Body Then said the Lord Darcy and what think you of me She said You have made a great Gun shoot it off for it will never do you any good you are going to War you will pain many a man but kill none So they went away Not long after the Cardinal came to Cawood and going to the top of the Tower he asked where stands York and how far it was thither and said that one said he should never see York Nay said one she said you might see York but never come at it He vowed to burn her when he came to York Then they shewed him York and told him it was but eight miles thence He said that he would soon be there but being sent for by the King he dyed in his way to London at Leicester of a Lask And Shipton's wife said to Mr. Besly Yonder is a fine Stall built for the Cardinal of the Minster of Gold Pearl and precious Stones go and present one of the Pillars to King Henry and he did so Mr. Besly seeing these things fall out as she had foretold desired her to tell him some more of her Prophesies Mr. Besly said she before that (c) This came to pass for Trinity Steeple in York was blown down with a tempest and Owse-bridge was broken down with a great floud and what they did in repairing the Bridge in the day time with the stones of the Steeple fell down in the night until they remembring this Prophesie laid the bighest stone of the Steeple for the foundation of the Bridge and then the work stood And by this was partly verified another of Mother Shipton's Prophesies viz that her Maid should live to drive her Cow over Trinity Steeple Owse-bridge and Trinity Church meet they shall build on the day and it shall fall in the night until they get the highest stone of Trinity Steeple to be the lowest stone of Owse-bridge That the day will come when the North shall rue its wondrous sore but the South shall rue it for evermore when Hares kindle on cold (d) Supposed to be 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 by suppression of Abbies other religious houses and at the Lord Wil.
