artist_n can_v testify_v now_o for_o that_o william_n lily_n seem_v to_o be_v very_o much_o offend_v with_o one_o master_n gear_n who_o as_o he_o say_v be_v sometime_o a_o priest_n of_o tewksbury_n and_o have_v late_o write_v a_o pamphlet_n call_v astrologo-mastrix_fw-la which_o indeed_o be_v as_o full_a of_o old_a idle_a sophistry_n as_o master_n lilly_n be_v of_o malice_n and_o ignorance_n yet_o i_o hold_v it_o no_o sufficient_a answer_n to_o tell_v he_o a_o story_n of_o a_o weathercock_n or_o a_o cock_n and_o bull_n in_o stead_n of_o deny_v and_o avoid_v his_o argument_n by_o better_a reason_n nor_o be_v it_o scholar_n like_o or_o favour_n at_o all_o of_o common_a civility_n to_o fall_v upon_o scandalize_n of_o a_o man_n reputation_n when_o he_o have_v not_o wit_n enough_o to_o require_v he_o otherwise_o i_o think_v lily_n you_o will_v scarce_o accept_v of_o it_o as_o a_o sufficient_a answer_n from_o i_o if_o in_o stead_n of_o correct_v your_o error_n i_o shall_v tell_v the_o world_n that_o you_o be_v but_o a_o tailor_n boy_n in_o saint_n clement_n parish_n and_o that_o the_o summity_n of_o all_o your_o honour_n be_v to_o be_v afterwards_o a_o scrivener_n man_n and_o that_o he_o ding_o your_o mrs_n teach_v you_o first_o to_o write_v secretary_n in_o which_o respect_n i_o account_v you_o not_o worthy_a of_o the_o just_a revenge_n of_o my_o pen_n this_o though_o it_o be_v true_a be_v but_o mean_a logic_n but_o the_o truth_n be_v you_o be_v lame_a of_o that_o leg_n and_o therefore_o you_o may_v do_v well_o to_o borrow_v a_o crutch_n of_o master_n thomas_n challoner_n that_o precise_a logician_n etc._n etc._n nor_o do_v it_o grieve_v i_o at_o all_o that_o i_o suffer_v so_o much_o for_o the_o justness_n of_o the_o cause_n which_o i_o have_v undertake_v and_o swear_v to_o as_o to_o be_v traduce_v by_o you_o with_o the_o term_n of_o a_o obscure_a footman_n ungownd_a and_o unbooted_a etc._n etc._n the_o time_n be_v when_o i_o have_v be_v on_o horseback_n where_o neither_o lily_n nor_o booker_n dare_v have_v show_v their_o face_n and_o it_o be_v no_o matter_n whether_o i_o wear_v boot_n or_o shoe_n either_o shall_v content_v i_o i_o have_v both_o and_o if_o i_o want_v a_o college_n gown_n i_o believe_v sir_n you_o be_v not_o in_o so_o much_o credit_n as_o to_o take_v one_o up_o for_o i_o till_o my_o next_o year_n almanac_n may_v defray_v your_o engagement_n however_o you_o be_v not_o so_o much_o master_n of_o your_o trade_n as_o to_o make_v it_o for_o i_o for_o to_o say_v the_o truth_n i_o be_v tell_v you_o master_n be_v a_o woman_n tailor_n i_o find_v nothing_o leave_v now_o worthy_a my_o notice_n save_v only_o the_o quadrate_n aspect_n of_o saturn_n to_o jupiter_n which_o hapen_v this_o year_n which_o master_n merline_n

thing_n concerning_o his_o majesty_n affair_n and_o the_o law_n but_o you_o see_v master_n merline_n dare_v not_o tell_v we_o his_o author_n and_o indeed_o he_o either_o will_v not_o or_o dare_v not_o yet_o nevertheless_o i_o have_v trace_v he_o and_o find_v haly_n to_o be_v the_o author_n of_o those_o word_n and_o of_o some_o other_o proceed_n which_o you_o may_v guess_v he_o be_v unwilling_a to_o publish_v by_o the_o tenor_n of_o they_o haly_n pag._n 391_o they_o run_v thus_o significat_fw-la say_v haly_n quoth_v existent_fw-la rebel_n qui_fw-la adversabuntur_fw-la regi_fw-la and_o qui_fw-la

whereby_o he_o have_v unworthy_o abuse_v i_o and_o make_v my_o almanac_n look_v weatherbeat_a like_o himself_o as_o for_o the_o conjunction_n of_o saturn_n and_o mars_n in_o taurus_n which_o master_n merline_n say_v have_v be_v so_o learned_o handle_v by_o john_n booker_n i_o have_v sufficient_o lay_v he_o open_a in_o that_o discourse_n i_o former_o mention_v and_o no_o doubt_n but_o it_o will_v serve_v both_o their_o turn_n yet_o i_o can_v pass_v by_o one_o gross_a error_n above_o all_o the_o rest_n commit_v by_o this_o wooden_a prick-ear_n john_n booker_n in_o his_o new_a almanac_n for_o 1647_o which_o may_v be_v easy_o know_v by_o the_o sign_n of_o the_o loggerhead_n in_o the_o front_n of_o it_o upon_o his_o judgement_n of_o the_o year_n at_o the_o vernal_a ingress_n where_o he_o

who_o be_v thus_o palpable_o and_o intolerable_o erroneous_a as_o to_o miss_v no_o less_o than_o a_o whole_a sign_n in_o the_o place_n of_o one_o planet_n and_o thus_o have_v i_o diligent_o and_o careful_o examine_v william_n lily_n discourse_n wherein_o i_o find_v he_o very_o foolish_o rash_a and_o even_o brim_n full_a of_o malice_n and_o ignorance_n and_o do_v now_o assure_o know_v he_o unworthy_a the_o name_n of_o a_o artist_n i_o can_v have_v take_v notice_n of_o a_o great_a many_o more_o error_n etc._n etc._n and_o particular_o in_o his_o translation_n of_o those_o first_o 50_o aphorism_n of_o ptolomi●s_n centil●qui_n wherein_o he_o show_v himself_o ignorant_a in_o the_o original_a so_o have_v he_o infect_v some_o of_o they_o with_o his_o own_o foolish_a commentary_n and_o among_o the_o rest_n a_o ridiculous_a story_n of_o a_o suit_n of_o clothes_n that_o he_o tear_v many_o hole_n in_o in_o go_v a_o nutting_n when_o the_o moon_n be_v ill_o dignify_v in_o lea_n which_o suit_n he_o say_v do_v never_o do_v he_o any_o service_n after_o whereby_o you_o see_v that_o lily_n be_v as_o bad_a a_o tailor_n as_o he_o be_v a_o astronomer_n that_o can_v mend_v his_o own_o clothes_n no_o better_o the_o truth_n be_v he_o be_v not_o bear_v to_o be_v a_o workman_n but_o i_o shall_v reserve_v my_o other_o more_o serious_a observation_n till_o i_o hear_v further_o from_o
