The □ of ♄ and ♁ as they are qualified at th● last New Moon shews the Death of some eminent Lady and the Misfortunes and Trouble of others If ♂ be in the seventh as I do believ● he is in ☌ to ☿ and both Peregrine he shew much Robbing and Mischiefs toward the end of the Month an● also the discovery of People that abuse the Coin of the Nation e●ther by clipping coining washing c.

At the Ingress of the ☉ into ♎ we find a very peaceable Position the Moon who is in ☍ to ●he place of the last ☌ in 1682. is in △ to ♃ ♂ ●nd ☿ Why should there not be Propositions made for Peace about this time and that with ●uccess too it seems very probable and the Heavens themselves favour it God grant it may succeed if it is for the advantage of the true Protestant Religion and the beating down of Tyranny Popery and all Arbitrary Power And indeed the △ of the ☉ and ♃ doth mightily perswade me that there will be something done ●o the purpose in it in order to its Conclusion And if it is now effected the Illustrious and Va●ant King of England will be the only Man to do it And besides if we consider that ☿ the Coelestial Foot-post ●ath been three times in △ to ♃ within a few weeks and at the ●ngress in △ to the Moon in the fifth the House of Embassies and ●essengers and Lord of the tenth the House of Honour and Gran●ur it is the more probable The Month is generally spent in things of a private nature and ●uality such as are the Affairs of States Kingdoms Nations and ●ountries Observations upon November Gadbury Sol Mars and Saturn in a fiery Sign What e're their project is do there combine Something they 'll do perhaps you 'll wonder what Why then I 'll tell you 't is some knavish Plot.

Partridges OBSERVATIONS For the Year 1692. OR AN ACCOUNT OF Divers Remarkable Things Which shall happen in most Parts of EUROPE Each Month. But particularly in France and Flanders c. To which is added John Gadbury's Verses about the Prince of Wales in his Almanack 1689 Travesty'd Edinburgh Re printed in the Year 1692. The Introduction AN Ancient Hermit by a craggy Hill By Natur 's help and art had form'd a Cell Where he did live from Rage and Madness free And did observe that curse Mans Luxury He spent his days in Peace conient and Ease And long before foresaw poor Englands case He Imil'd to see French Apes fill Albions Hall And make the English Lyon their Jack call And how the Gallick Circe did prevail How well she bow'd and crign d wag'd her Tail How sure she dealt how Rich by a light gain How well she rid us and was rid again He laught to see Towns sold and Faith betray'd Honesty sneak Hypocrisy obey'd To see the great Ones how their manner was Roar against Rome and yet they went to Mass But griev'd to see how our Religion stood And Faiths pretence by Knaves was built in Blood How they proceeded how they laid their Crimes To Excommunications Jails and Fines From such a Faith and Men Lord set us free Whose Doctrine gives a murd'ring Destiny He piti'd England's fate how tamely she Parted with Charters Laws and Liberty Observ'd their Passive Cant their Noise and Tools How with Church notions they betray'd the Fools He wept to see the Murd'ring Trade and Crew Sheriffs made and Juries packt they knew would do Crimes form'd and forg'd when they wanted more A swinging swearing Tool they had in store Or else some Inuendo then in force By which those Judges with their Wise discourse If Brick bat was but nam'd 't was prov'd a Horse Thus Whipe and Halter mov'd as George gave Laws That Butcher-General to the Popish Cause Imagin'd Crimes Crimes that were never done Let Collonel Sydney's Murder stand for one Where Inuendo did our Work alone By these and such like means was all destroy'd By these base Actions and worse were imployed PARTRIDGES Observations For the Year 1692. Observations upon January Gadbury Come mighty Muse Assist me once agen Touch thou my Cranium and inspire my Pen And let the Black mouth'd Tribe again reflect Tho I don't Prophecy I may Predict And that it may with Truth and Good be blest Heaven guide my hand let mighty Jove assist Partridge All hail my Masters here is muckle do A year of Wonders dost thou call it John 'T was such a year so fatal to your Crew It hath not left you Ground to Anchor on Let Chains then be their Lot who humbly crave And beg to be a little Bastard's Slave It is now just a year since our Holy Plot was discovered when Passive Obedience was turned into Rebellious Resistance and a design laid to destroy the bravest Prince in the World and this done by those who in their publick Auditories had be-rebell'd all mankind but their own Faction by those I say at whose doores lies all the Blood and miseries of Ireland If we consider that the Ingress was attended with a ☌ of the ☉ and ☿ and a △ of ♃ and the ☉ those things compared with the beginning of this month seems to shew us much news discoursed of among all People and especially about Peace and such Affairs as relate thereunto as Truces Cessations of Arms and the like and do you think there is any thing in it Vix Credo For ☉ and ☽ are Gadent and the old plotting Knave ♄ is in ☍ to ♂ from the third and ninth the house of Religon I hope we have no more holy Plots coming abroad again and yet I dare venture a Wager there is something in it but it will be smothered in the Birth he that plots for the Church plots safe The Councils of Europs very hush Observations on February Gadbury Of late Heaven's Cohorts did each other greet And at their General Rendevouz did meet Mavors in Gemini there still resides While Chronos on his Half-hors'd Bowman rides Th' Effects lie snug and hush and then begins When Sol and Stilborn do embrace the Twins Partridge When Gadbury's Stars and Angels did appear The Friends of Rome flew swiftly through the Air. From some small Cell or Cellar as 't is thought The Reaking Babe was in a hurry brought Immortal Elf how often that did dye It s Real Father knows no more than I. At the Ingress in December we find the ☽ void of course but the ☉ is going to the △ of ♃ and on the Cusp of the Ascendant in ♉ but the ☉ lately seperated from the ☍ of ♂ and the Body of ☿ and this so near the Tropick that I fear will spoil the Influence of ♃ 's Balsamick Rays which indeed tend to peace But here we find the ☽ going to the square of ♄ and ♂ and toward the end of the month we shall see the Effects of it in London among the New Non-cons and the murmuring Crew and it will be about some seditious thing in reference to the Government perhaps meeting to affront the King and Queen as they have done before but I remember when a Gollows used to be the reward of such things in the two late pious Reigns but the case is altered the Murtherers then are the Traytors now It also shews some suddain surprize or treachery in Flanders perhaps the French Tyrant may go to market about this time to take Towns after his usual way of fighting without Blood Observations upon March. Gadbury With full career Sol to the Ram doeth hie He being there the Judge of Equity But ere he doth his Regal Throne possess Grim furious Mars disturbs his happiness Hence Feuds and Differences hence too Treach'ry flows Perfidious Friends are worse then open Foes Partridge Who dars call eighty eight an empty year When things so plain in plenty did appear It gave a Prince by Miracles begot And smooth fat Priest from foraign nations brought Mass houses publick did each City grace The Regulators and Salisbury Race At the Lunation now approaching we find both ☉ and ☽ in exact square to ♂ from ♓ and II. Lites Rixae Interfectiones multas in multis Locis Mars is in a human Sign from whence we usually find Quarrels and Contentions as well publick as private from whence also we shall hear of Duels and Murders about this time in divers parts also Skirmishing by Parties of those Soldiers that guard the Frontiers of Countries and Garrisons We may also expect to hear of some Cruelty Murder or other Villanies committed by the bloody Rappare● Papists in Ireland In short mankind in general are about this time inclin'd to Violence and Villanies Roberies and Blood as besides this Lunation the square of ♄ ☿ the square of the ☉ ♂ shew Whatsoever the discourse is about a Peace at this

time will end in words and noise and have no other effect for I can see no real ground to judge any such thing and besides the War hath not travelled its full Journey yet Much lying news spread abroad to the abuse of the Credulous and this about some considerable thing as they report Observations upon April Gadbury The Orbs and Stars how stedfastly they 're hurl'd Those Arks where God hides Judgments for the World That shake its Pillars yet themselves we find Beyond the Rage of Thunder Storms and Wind. And when the Almighty through these Trumpets calls Poor tott'ring Man he staggers and he falls Partridge No no sour Criticks we cannot deny That Honest Jack hath learnt to Cant and Lye That year 's suppli'd in full witth Lies and Tales About the Glories of his Prince of Wales Poor harmless Babe miscall'd a Prince of Bliss Born for his Mothers Ease not Consciences Holland seems active and early in their Preparations for this Summers Affairs and this as well for Land as Sea service which is aptly enough shewed by ♂ 's being in ♋ in ⚹ to ♃ and ☽ applying ♂ in ♋ a Northern Sign with North Latitude free from all Affliction and in ⚹ to ☿ Lord of the tenth shews that the Armies of Europe are endeavouring to take the Field betimes and that the Princes of Europe are making vigorous Preparations for the following Campain and this the rather because ♂ is also Angular in the tenth house and their applying to the Sextile and Parallel of ♃ Lord of the 7th which they say is the House of War But this Application between ♂ and ♃ seems also to shew some Propositions for Peace but I think it is for no other end but to protract time till some other design is ready Is it possible there should be an ☍ of ♄ and ☿ from II and ♐ and no Knavish Villainies acted or discovered in or about London at such a time if there is any Roguery now against the Government be sure there is a Woman up to the Ears in it but be it what it will a Woman is at the bottom and the thing is villanous The ☍ of ♌ and ☿ should give the Merchants good news Observations upon May. Gadbury As the Sun's Rays and heat without controul Dissolves the frozen Mountains near the Pole So 't is his Beams refresheth Earth and Air Excites to motion calls out men of War In thy good time O Lord let mankind be From Rage Oppression Force and Madness free Partridge That Land 's unhappy and will e're be so That hath a Prince can neither stand nor go For he that 's led by Priests by Priests is sway'd And Priests by King and Laws must be obey'd 'T was from such Laws that King resolv'd to shine As Lewis gives and not a Constantine Some mighty Action near of the nature o● ♂ that is fighting either by Sea or Land notwithstanding the ☉ is in ☌ with ♃ and ⚹ to ♂ and ♃ in ⚹ to ♂ likewise And I really judge th● Arms of the victorious King of England is about this time successful against the Christian Turk he I mean that scorns to be just or honest the French Tyrant and I judge also there is a probability of the Effusion of much Blood as well as a prospect of Victory These Rays do also shew many Men according to their Qualities shall receive various Favours and Marks or Characters of Honour either as Rewards for Service and Valour or else to qualify them for publick Business On May 20. 22 1685 Dr Oates was whipt being tryed by a Protestant Jury and Protestant Judges such as they were and found guilty on Popish Evidence he had 2256 Lashes with a Whip● of six Thongs knotted which amounts to 13536 Strips his Judges were Jefferies Withins Walcot and Holloway There is now an ☍ of ♄ and the ☉ this makes a great Man frown c. There is work for the Messengers abroad if they will but look out sharp c. Observations upon June Gadbury Saturn and Jove confront each other's Rest One Natur 's States man t'other her High-Priest They fall at odds ay let them quarrel too If Mankind suffer'd not for what they do They move and scatter what they have in store And snatch those Joys away they gave before Partridge By whose Examples must our after Kings Shun all those Causes whence Rebellion springs Your Prince of Wales I know while your soft Names Of Golden Laws are joyn'd to Iron Chains 'T was Tyrant-force made People try their Brains To Abdicate the Cause and break their Chains The Death of some old States-men Officers or Persons eminent in dispensing the Government of Nations seems to prepare and make way for the rising of others for Removes and Preferments c. And where Armies are near there is great expectation of Action between them but I do judge the greatest and more considerable part of such Motion and Action will be deferred till the end of this Month or beginnig of July but still preparing and great expectation what will be the Event of it The Affairs of this Month seem to concern Spain in their Military and Martial Negotiaons France in every thing that relates to her Government and Quiet Hungary and Dalmatia c. are affected with some Dissentions either about setling their Government or about some Points of Religion London is also disturbed with some Divisions in her particular Government uneasy murmuring Spirits are still trying their Tricks to destroy their own Quiet and the Peace of all besides Poor Men they want a Hobby horse but the best on 't is they are Men of more Hope than Courage c. ●s London healthy viz credo Some eminent Wedding ends the Mon●● or near it Observations upon July Gadbury Let all the Plagues of Murther now be flung On that curs'd Babe from whence those Mischiefs sprung There 's ruffling work above and hence must flow Mutations here some Tyrants overthrow Tho at this distance yet methinks I hear Most pleasant News some Abdication near Partridge None need doubt Ease and Quiet since we have Heaven's Gift and Blessing in a Prince so brave Born to restore our Laws that gasping lay That Papists and worse Men had torn away This is the Man nor your Welsh Prince shall be The true Restorer of our Liberty Although the ☍ of ♄ and ♃ have a large share in the Actions and Affairs of this Summer as the other Rays and Lunations have yet it is to be considered differently from them they being both of a slower Motion and greater Bodies than the rest and always with their present In flux stamp a new face on the publick Affairs of the World and at this time of Europe in particular as a few Months hence will inform us for there are three Oppositions as well as there were three Conjunctions But at present all things tend to Violence and Blood the real Effects of War and Confusion Pax
