will this Ill happen to this our Querent seeing it 's so that it will be Why truly the Caldeans Egyptians and Rosie-Gruâ—ians and others hath encourag'd me in this Work finding them true to number out Times and Seasons and they have given us those Lotts in poiuting out some for Years some for Months some for Days and some for Hours viz. the fixed for Years the common for Months and moveable for Days and Hours as is already shewn you Now some observe for Weeks the Lott Cauda Draconis for Days the Lott Conjunctâ—o and for Hours the Lott Amissio So I consider'd my Rules and found that this Trouble would fall on this Man in about a Months time and so it was a Month and three Days after the Vision or Dream and at that time the two forementioned Persons went to a Justice of the Peace and swore this Qâ—erent of ours had robb'd Money and that he kept company with Clippers and Coiners so his House was searched and they found nothing but he was apprehended and carried before such Persons as before-mentioned and was there Examined And as for his Freedom or Deliverance you shall have it at large in the next Chapter But Reader this is no new thing now in our Days for it 's very frequent that such Persons of a double dye in Knavery for a revenge to gratify their own Will to make nothing to â—wear Treason against a Man fallly and maliciously But in this particular I will open to you the Way and Method to know the Nature of a Dream or Vision or the word Somnium it 's no more but an Observation drawn from the 9th h. which is the House of our Querent's Spiritual Guide which did reveal to him this Trouble Shame and Disgrace a Month before it came Now we will take a view of our great Work and we may find that on the 9th House is that Lott called Rubeus which is of a bloody and harsh nature insomuch that our former Philosophers said If that Figure Rubeus ariseth in your Figure let it be say they depopulated or destroyed Now I am of the contrary opinion for as long as we live under the Elements we must expect ill as well as good The Astrologers do not destroy their Figures when they find the ☋ in the Ascendant or elsewhere for they observe some Knavery forth coming thereby to themselves or to the Qâ—…nt Neither do I advise you when you find the Lott Rubeus or ill Lotts to cast it aside but observe the Nature and Qualities thereof As for Example Rubeus is in the 9th turn back to the main Rule viz. to the Lotts in the 9th h. and you will find what that Lott Rubeus is what it signifies in the 12th House in every House he differs something But in the main it 's a Lott of a destructive Nature and of a Watery Triplicity but many Writers compare it to both Fire and Water upon extreams having no mercy And very like unto this Nature was the Vision of our Querent viz. Burning and Consuming by Fire or Water or both in a most frightful and terrible manner And this is my Opinion and Judgment on the Vision of this Gentleman Now I went to him and laid down this my Judgment concerning the Vision and he told me it was very true for Fire and Water with Destruction was the ground-work of his frightful Dream Then I desired this our Querent to reveal to me the whole Matter The VISION opened Nuperrimè factum est cum quidam Homo alterum velut ab utero materno nudum humi procumbentem supino more vidisset cujus venter magno vulnere consossus est qui alta voce cum advocavit ut ei istud vulnus sanaret Somniator noster se promptè effecisse arbitrabatur cum sauciatus iste sese in faciem ex improviso convertens vulnus à tergo longe horribiliorem in lucem protulit quod carnem ejus usque adeo torsit ut brevi in cinerem redigi nec non in viscera ejus descendere videbatur quo aspectu ad tempus obmut uit Animum autem tandem revocans interrogavit eum num adhuc inter vivos esset cum pro responso habuit se it a isse subito inclamavit ut aquam ei adferent ad inflamatum ejus corpus extinguendum quocum statim expergefecit God often doth by Dreams to us declare Strange Accidents before they do appear By a Dream shew'd Joseph what should fall To him his Parents and his Brethren all By Dreams likewise did Pharaoh understand There would be seven years Famin in the Land His Butlers Dream shew'd Pharaoh would restore Him to his Place that he had lost before The Baker's Dream also did signifie That in three days he should be Hang'd high The Souldiers to Gideon did foreshow That he the Midianites should overthrow More may be said of Dreams and their Events And how they shew our Good or Discontents But this I hope at present may suffice Since a Word may be enough to the Wise CHAP. III. A Brief Account of the Delivery Friendship and Support of this Querent under so great a Scandal and Disgrace drawn from this Angelical Work of Ours 1. IN the first place observe that we have here two Witnesses and one Judge and first we will speak of the two Witnesses the Right Witness is called Laetitia a Lott in English signifying Joy and Gladness Now this Right Witness is always taken for the Querent and signifies his Concern either good or ill and to be more larger it hath also an inspection into all the Houses on that side that is to say 2 3 4 9 10 it discovers what the Motion of the Querent is before propounded And this I must tell you is a good Testimony of the Gentleman's Integrity and Honesty And in this I am more plain because I would instruct young Students Secondly As for the Left Witness it bears Testimony of the Mind and Intention of your Enemies and as a Landskip of the other Heuses in that side c. The Lott which is the Left Witness is called Rubeus a Lott of a desperate bloody-mindeâ— Nature which very patly represents the horrid Treason sworn by PORNE Homo scelestus and with the Lott Populus in the 7th House these together give you a plain Discovery of the forementioned Knavery as if you had it printed before your Eyes Thirdly Another Testimony of our Querent's speedy Delivery is by that Lott which we call the Judge viz. ☉ retr in ♉ Observe here Rules of truth taken from the Caldeans and the Rosie-Crucian-men When the Judge moves himself into the â—oth h. of the Querâ—nt it 's an absolute Testimony that the Judge of the Law will do Justice This happens to our Querent if you look back to our great Work you will plainly see it and the Judge freed this our Prisoner and the Clerks also of the Law cry'd out shame on this PORNE
