A mery ê“nosticacion For the yere of Chrystes incarnacyon A thousande fyue hundreth fortye foure This to pronostycate I may be bolde That whaÌ„ the newe yere is come gone is the olde ⧠✚ ⧠OF this yere for to pronosticate It apperteyneth nat to a â—oole nor dodypate To pronostyque of the influence of this yere For thoughe they wolde they were neuer the nere But I shal tell you of this pronostycaâ—ion Wherin in it taketh his chefe foundacyon ⧠Of the Eclyps ⧠Whan I consydre Ptholome I fynde That the Eclyps of the soune doth passe my miÌ„de For Capricornus Aries declarynge the same That Cancer and Libra were out of frame Saturne and Mars sheweth it playne The eyght day of Apryl it may chauÌ„ce to rayne For Iupiter and Taurus when all is done Declareth a certayne Eclyps of the sonne But Venus and Mercury by theyr operacyon Denyeth that Virgo hath any constyllacyon For the Eclyps of the sonne also of the Moone Shal be surely I can nat tell howe soone Wherfore Ptholome in his Centiloquium Telleth not before what after shal come Therfore I pronostyque as nye as I can Of thynges that shal happen nowe and than And surely or the yere go about Some of them may chaunce without doubt ☞ Of the foure quarters of this yere Bycause in heuen there be many martyrs Truely this yere shal be foure quarters Wynter Pryme tyme Somer and Haruest But here Ptholome I fynde thou swaruest For Ptholome sheweth not wherof I wondre That Virgo is a maâ—uaylous signe of thundre Venus and Iupiter be moyste and colde Noughty signes for them that be olde But I saye yf the nynth daye of Nouembre Had fallen vpon tenth daye of Decembre It had bene a meruaylous hote yere for bees For then had the Moone ben lyke a grene chese Somer begyneth the fyrst daye of Iune And they shal go bare for that haue no shewe Sometyme inclyned to be hote in the ayre Yf it be nat foule then it shal be fayre For Mars and Mercury be sygnes of heate Men shal nat be colde as â—ouge as they sweate By the reason that Libra in the occidental Shal be wyndye and drye in the Eclypsal For saturne and Mars and also Libra Be precedent with a â—exâ—â—le et cetera ¶ Of the twelue monethes Bycause that Saturne is dominator here I fynde yâ— ther shal be twelue monethes thâ— yere And euery moneth contaynynge foure wekes Bycause in â—ent they make portage with â—ekes Dayes and houre shal nat be straunge For euery moneth the Mone shal chaunge By Mars and Mercury somtyme I fynde That this yeare shal be great store of wynde For men and women whaÌ„ they haue wel dynde shal haue no power to holde fast behynde The blaâ—â— shal be bosterous byg outragious Wherfore the ayre must nedes be contagious And except that God worke by his great grace The wynde shal nat alway staÌ„de styli one place Sometyme the blastes shal be pretye and softe And sometyme of force they shal come a loft But if the blastes breake out beyonde yeâ—rynke The cloudes caÌ„not be cleÌ„ly but the ayre shal sâ—ike But Venus and Virgo it appereth playne That enuyous persons shal be ful of disdayne Sometyme frost and soâ—etyme snowe And soÌ„etyme in the element ê‘chaÌ„ce a rayn bowe Sometyme mystes with moystnes mutable Bycause that Venus in thys poynt is varyable Than the cocke crewe and than it was day ThaÌ„ the bullocke brake lose the rope raÌ„e away ⧠Of diseases and syckenesses Dyuers dyseases shal rayne this yere Some shal dye and some shal â—ary here Some shal haue such sore payne in theyr hedes They shall slepe on benches for lacke of beddes A coÌ„mon disease both in towne and cytye Shal raygne this yere the more is the pytye Aswell in the countre as in the cytye towne Many shal nat be able to chaunâ—e a crowne And some shal synge so wofull a note That they shal not be able to chaunge a grote Thys is bycause of the Eclyps of the Mone Some shal lope theyr potage for lack of a spon In the the somer tyme shal be suche an heare For Saturne and Mars haue ful wel discust That in the eclyps Mercury is combust ¶ Of suche as be vnder the sonne Kynges Prynces and Lordes of myght This yere shal â—e the sonne gyue lyght Except the cloudes so couer her beames Or elâ—es she shal shyne in al Christen realmes ⧠Of the Venustians The childreÌ„ of Venus shal prosper but lytle Because that lazers shal be in the spyttle Some childreÌ„ of Venus shal burne in such loue That their handes shal be fyt for euery gloue Some wyl loue more than a thousande folde But hote loue this yere wylbe soue colde ¶ Of Marcurialles Aduocates oratours w e the good pore proctors Shalbe i as good case as som honest doctours The eclyps declareth them to be suspecte Of takynge of brybes beyng therwithin fecte ☞ Of Lunatistes Messangers wyttes shal be so farre spent Somtymes shal forget wherfore they wer sent Marynars shal sayle into many landes But some parchaunce shal stycke in the sandes Yf madmen this yere be as mad as hartes Then shal madmen play madmens partes To declare any farther of the eclyps of the soÌ„ne I can do no more then I haue done The fassyon of vs pnoâ—â—ycators euermore was To speake of some thynges yâ— neuer came to pas Therfore when yeshal our falsholde espye Do nomore but gyue vs a lytle leaue to lye ⧠Of Kynges What kynges shal do this yere I cannot tel For in Gods secretes I was neuer sent so well But I trust that Henry our most noble Kynge Contynually in honour shal florysshe sprynge W e Kateryne his wyfe Prynce Edwarde his son And aswell for do as they haue hetherto done ☞ AMEN
