A Health to the KING OR AN Astrological Prediction OF CHARLS II. HIS Coming to the Crown of England c. By TIMOTHY GADBVRY Philomath Tempora mutantur nos mutamur in illis London Printed for W. Gilbertson at the Bible in Guilt-spur-street without Newgate 1660. C P ICH DI EN A Health TO THE KING THe times we live in producing altogether varieties in mens fancies that men were seldom fixed to any one setled opinion in any thing so that Quot homines tot sententiae might very well have been taken for a common Proverb in our dayes for mens mindes changed oftener then the Moon these changes were not alone in private Persons but among those that took upon them to steer the Helm of Government here also so that very few had that blessing among them which the Prophet David mentions of being of one minde in a house so that our Nation was in a condition like a man troubled with a Hectick feaver and a frency to boot that most men were unsetled in the way they lived in One man cries out for a King another no King and seeing this confusion among us I took into serious consideration whether the King were likely to come among us or not for though people be never so mad in their wayes let them but consider seriously and they may see that a Prince may better live without a people then a people without a Prince And though many have had opinion that he would never come to his Crown here in England nay some Artists too as well as vulgar persons I shall here make it plain from rules of art that he will come though he should have a multitude of opposers I pray God he may be setled in peace without bloodshed for if we suffer him not to come in peace and legal terms Forrainers will assist him and then our condition will be the worse I shall add a line or two of an ancient prophecy concerning the Kings coming in this year 1660. The Moon eclips'd till sixty year Shall then break out and shine most clear While England then for joy shall sing And bless the reigns of her good KING The Figure of his Nativity follows Prince Charles born 1630. May 29. 10th 21. Ae. M. In passing judgement of this Princely Nativity I shall not obtrude my single and private opinion upon the world for Authentick without consent of Authority and that of the best and most credible Astrologers viz. Haly Orignus Guido Banalus c. I shall first shew some reasons of our Kings unfortunacy of late years And secondly of his being established in his Fathers Throne And thirdly his time to continue ad terminum vitae Sect. 1. VVHosoever hath the Lord of the Ascendant combust of the Sun shall suffer many afflictions in his life time this is verified in this Princely geniture to the knowledge of most people the ☉ which afflicts ☿ here is Lord of the 12th House which signifies Enemies but foras much as ☿ disposes of the ☉ it notes the Native to overcome at last Another reason is ♌ in the 4th House which signifies much labour and sorrow to the Native a confusion and waste of his Patrimony loss in Lands Buildings and all kinde of Edifices trouble and anxiety in the life of his Ancestors loss of estimation of credit how this hath been fulfilled on this Princely Native let the world judge I might here shew some reasons why his afflictions should be in his younger years but I pass that by and come to Sect. 2. THat he shall be established in his Fathers Throne Maj. That person that hath the Lord of his Ascendant strong in the mid-heaven and the Sun and ♌ there also if it be any Princely geniture shall obtain his Fathers Kingdom Min. But this Princely Native hath the Lord of the Ascendant strong in the mid-Heaven or tenth House and ☉ and ♌ there also Concl. Ergo This Princely Native shall obtain his Fathers Kingdom The major here I shall support and strengthen by several testimonies First Si quando Dominus Ascendentis fuerit in signo M.C. illud signum fuerit domus vel exaltio aut terminus vel triplicitas ejus Haly de jud Ast fol. 227. when the Lord of the Ascendant shall be in the tenth House in his own dignities and in a masculine sign the Native shall be a King or ruler over many Secondly Si quando Sol fuerit in M.C. existente in suamet demo aut in signo masculino natus erit Rex aut Deminus multae gentis c. Haly pag. 5. fol. 249. Sol in the tenth House gives great glory authority honor and dignity from Emperors Kings Princes and great Persons he shall obtain the love and friendship of some eminent person or persons that shall exalt him from his low unto a very high degree i. e. to his Kingdom This will be fully verified by other Nations assisting him to bring him in if we suffer him not to come in peace Thirdly If the ♌ be in the tenth House happily posited it denotes honor and preferment to the Native be his condition what it will all these Aphorisms agreeing who can say that Carolus the Second shall be hindred from his Fathers Throne Sect. 3. THat his Honor and Dominion once obtained shall remain and endure ad terminum vitae to the end of his Natural life Maj. Whosoever hath the cuspe of honor and Dominion in his Nativity fixed and the significator fixed also in his own dignities his honor and renown once obtained must continue to the end of his life Min. But it is thus in this Princely geniture Ergo His honor once obtained shall and must continue to the end of his life I need not rake over many vetustious forms of obsolete Authors for the proof of this so conspicuous a truth for every Astrologer let him be of never so short a time studious therein must set his seal to the certainty thereof however to confirm this truth hear what Origanus saith fol. 703. in his Discourse de duratione honorum proving the truth of this proposition in these words Primo enim beneficus significatur ac fortis ratione essentialium dignitatum statum honorum non solum cum facilitate quadam per totam vitam nati duraturum esse c. The same doth the learned Leovitius say in his Ephemerides likewise the ingenious Argol Ptol. par lib. 2. saith If the significator of honor and dignity be in signes the joy or delight in the honor and dignity will continue We admit by reason of the position of Caput Algol in decima domo that this Heroick King may by a Phanatick brood at sometimes be disturbed but this can never rise so high he being once possessed as to detriment him in the least in point of his Soveraignity Neither let any man obje●● to me the whimsical judgements and Phanatisms 〈◊〉 Purblinde Artists who out of disaffection to this Ro … Person and for a peniary reward have canted his dow●fall and absolute impossibility of ever regaining or continuing his Fathers dignity For it is as certain as wh●● is most certain that this Princely Person shall recover his Fathers Glory and his own former Illustrious Estate and Grandure Maugre the most malicious Enemie● that Earth it self can produce The Stars proclaim his accessum ad Dominum and from thence I predict it 〈◊〉 to the Gentry and Comonalty of England I dedic●●● and send it and am not ashamed by name to own it and therefore subscribe unto it From my house on Wappin wall righ●t over ●gainst ●●e golden 〈◊〉 Dated April 25. 1666.
