FORRAIGN and DOMESTICK PROPHESIES BOTH Antient and Modern FORE-TELLING The several Revolutions which shall yet befall THE SCEPTER OF ENGLAND His Highness's arrival to the Scepter Soveraignty and Government of Great Brittain the Fall of the Turk Pope Emperour of Germany and most of the great Princes of the World His Highnesses Lineal Descent from the Antient Princes of Brittain Also a short account of the late KINGS Original Published in Welsh and English for the satisfaction of the Intelligent in either TONGVE By a Well-wisher to his Native Country LONDON Printed and are to be sold by Lodowick Lloyd at his Shop next to the Castle in Corn-hill 1659. To the READER REader thou art here presented with many antient Prophesies some of 11 and others of 1200 years antiquity the rest very antient but for want of a Corrector sufficiently intelligent in the Brittish tongue that part of the Book viz. the Welsh has not escaped the Press free from Errata's The language these Prophesies were delivered in is so very antient that it differs much from what is now spoken and upon that account I could not for the present the Collector of these Prophesies living very remote procure any so intelligent in that Tongue as to have warranted it free from Errata's but as the faults will easily appear to those that understand the Language so they will by them as soon be corrected and for those who only understand the English they are to them of no concernment but if opportunity hereafter offer it self and the complection of the time deserve it those faults will not only be corrected for a further satisfaction to those who understand the Brittish tongue but some marginal Notes will be added for their more easie understanding but I doubt not but they will meet with many Opposers who oftentimes resist the apparentest Truth with a sturdie defiance because it makes not for their espoused interest and those kinde of men reckon the most currentest Coyn where the very finger of heaven is perceptible but as counterfeit because it has not the Image of their Caesar imprest upon it however if thou wilt spend so much time as to look them over thou wilt finde their Language strange as to the late King and his Family his Highnesse and Posterity What was then delivered by them hath been ever since preserved and conveyed from age to age and now brought to publick view and though they seem great strangers to most men by reason of their hoary hair yet there are many Persons living both of Honour and Integrity who have converst with them in antient manuscripts many years before the breaking out of the late Warrs besides many Out-landish Authors for many hundred of years past made use of their names and prophesies upon several occasions but it 's true many foreign antient Writers judged Taliesin rather a Magician then an Angel as the antient Brittains termed him in regard of those wonderfull things which he did when he lived amongst them 1200 years since and forasmuch as no account could be given of his exstraction and Genealogie But my purpose is not to Apologize for him in either respects but leave him to be judged by them that reade him only I thought good to acquaint thee That the passage concerning the original and descent of the late King made use of in these Prophesies thou shalt finde at large in Holingsheds History of Scotland pag. 246. This I thought good to mention least the Reader be possest with prejudice against the Collector of these Prophesies who quotes that passage out of Powels Chronicle which is very rare or not to be had Vale.

In the year of Christ 1050 and in the time of Griffith ap Llewelin Prince of Wales Makbeth King of Scotland caused a noble man of his named Baucho to be cruelly murthered where upon Fleance the son of the said Baucko escaping the hands of Makbeth fl d to Griffith ap Llewelin Pâ—ince of Wales where being courteously entertained and within few years after fel in love with the Princâ—s daughter and got her with childe and was delivered of a son named Walter who in few years proved a couragious Spark this Walter on a time fell uâ— with one of his companions for calâ—ing him a Bâ—stard and slew him and to avoid the danger of the Law sled to Scotland and was there entertained and came at last to such favour with the Scottish King that he was made steward of the Kings revenue and this steward from Griffith is the original of stewards the late Kings of Scotland c.
