The
Iewes
Prophesie
.
THe
newes
are
come
that
the
king
of
Hungarie
waketh
a
great
Army
,
which
shall
haue
for
his
ayde
the
gailies
of
Buda
,
and
of
many
other
Princes
of
Christendome
.
And
they
say
moreouer
,
that
the
King
of
Bohemia
will
helpe
therein
,
and
that
the
most
part
of
Christian
Princes
will
come
and
ayde
him
in
this
enterprize
against
the
Turke
,
except
the
Signorie
of
Venice
,
which
meddleth
nothing
at
all
in
it
.
These
reporters
of
newes
affirme
,
that
there
shall
come
aboue
a
hundred
gallies
,
besides
other
Barks
,
ships
,
&
Hulkes
without
number
,
which
is
occasion
that
they
hasten
the
Warre
the
more
.
Notwithstanding
,
men
esteeme
not
so
much
hereof
,
as
of
the
war
that
is
made
beyond
the
Mountaines
▪
as
you
shall
vnderstand
not
without
wondering
at
it
.
The
Tartars
make
friendes
vpon
the
greater
Sea
,
&
haue
made
a
league
and
friendship
with
the
great
Turke
,
requiring
ayde
,
for
they
are
molested
with
war
by
the
great
Emperor
of
Moscouia
,
&
Prince
of
Sagodie
,
of
Pogore
,
of
Smelengie
,
of
Drossy
,
of
Gazam
,
of
Virgolosam
,
of
Tartarie
,
of
Cham
,
and
of
diuers
other
people
and
regions
lying
toward
the
South
:
they
say
that
this
Emperor
or
Duke
hath
two
Armies
,
and
is
called
Iohn
Dwatillo
,
a
young
Man
,
of
the
age
of
xxiiii
.
yeares
,
noble
and
valiant
,
and
a
Christian
,
after
the
institution
of
the
Greekes
,
and
presumeth
that
by
reason
of
his
bloud
,
the
Empire
of
Constantinople
doth
belong
to
him
.
And
these
two
Armies
are
about
a
two
hundered
thousand
horse
.
They
were
not
wont
in
times
past
to
be
so
strong
,
nor
so
feared
of
the
Turkes
,
for
they
had
not
the
vse
of
artillary
in
the
warre
:
but
nowe
they
haue
maruailous
great
preparation
in
theyr
warre
.
Hee
hath
in
wages
certaine
Dutch
Captaines
,
and
about
tenne
thousand
Maister
gunners
,
and
is
maruailous
well
furnished
with
harquebushes
and
artillery
,
and
because
men
vnderstand
that
hee
hath
so
vanquisht
the
Tartarians
,
and
brought
them
to
such
a
state
,
that
they
cannot
much
more
resist
him
and
that
if
the
saide
▪
Muscouite
should
bemaisters
ouer
the
Tartars
,
they
should
consequently
be
Rulers
of
the
great
sea
,
&
the
way
should
be
open
and
easie
for
them
to
come
,
not
onely
to
Constantinoble
,
but
also
to
driue
the
Turke
out
of
Europe
:
And
because
that
the
saide
great
Turke
is
assured
of
this
enterprize
and
commotion
of
the
Greekes
:
he
hath
concluded
and
determined
,
to
send
to
the
sayde
Tartars
a
good
assystance
of
fifteene
thousand
fighting
men
,
and
also
for
this
purpose
,
he
hath
sent
to
the
Sea
ten
Gallies
to
passe
them
ouer
.
Men
make
mention
and
doubt
of
Mondaccio
,
which
is
a
great
Prince
and
Ruler
,
and
able
to
make
fourescore
,
or
a
hundred
thousand
Horse
:
and
yet
men
are
vncertaine
whose
part
he
will
take
,
because
he
is
a
tributary
vnto
the
great
Turke
.
There
is
newes
also
from
Affrica
,
that
the
King
of
Bugien
,
the
King
Tramece
,
the
King
of
Tunis
,
the
Children
of
Serif
;
the
Lorde
of
Murocho
,
and
of
Gran
,
with
the
Arabians
&
other
,
haue
taken
in
hand
to
dryue
and
expulse
the
Turke
wholy
out
of
Affrica
,
&
to
endomage
him
as
much
as
they
may
.
Men
know
not
yet
in
what
place
they
will
war
,
but
we
shall
know
it
shortly
.
The
newes
also
is
,
that
the
Soffie
is
in
Campe
with
a
great
Army
,
and
hath
the
Medes
to
helpe
him
,
which
border
vppon
the
Caspian
Sea
,
and
of
one
side
neighbur
to
the
Hircans
,
called
at
this
day
Correxans
and
Zecatans
,
with
whom
he
hath
made
a
league
and
peace
.
There
are
on
his
side
also
the
Ibeans
and
Albians
,
and
also
the
people
of
Mel●●ar
,
which
harbor
vpon
the
Indians
,
&
likewise
with
the
King
of
Bosphorus
,
all
beeing
people
maruailous
swift
and
nimble
.
In
this
so
mighty
an
host
and
armie
,
is
also
Bascet
the
Sonne
of
the
great
Turke
,
by
meanes
whereof
all
in
those
partes
is
in
great
trouble
,
as
well
as
heere
.
It
seemeth
that
the
Ianissaries
bring
him
the
lot
of
Turkie
,
as
Baduget
,
Zermonia
,
Alepo
,
and
all
the
Regions
lying
neere
to
the
Sossi
is
reuolted
,
all
the
which
particularities
shall
be
vnderstood
more
at
large
.
This
newes
is
great
,
&
hath
made
the
great
Turk
to
muse
enough
vpon
it
,
but
aboue
all
these
maruelous
and
dreadfull
newes
which
are
hapned
,
there
is
yet
chanced
another
,
which
hath
greatly
feared
and
abashed
all
men
,
which
although
it
seemeth
to
bee
incredible
,
yet
vpon
my
credit
it
is
most
true
,
and
that
is
,
that
a
people
heretofore
vnknowne
,
mighty
,
swift
,
&
marueilous
nimble
,
hath
taken
weapon
in
hand
,
to
the
disaduantage
and
losse
of
the
house
of
Ottoman
.
They
saye
that
Alexander
the
great
did
in
times
past
driue
beyond
the
mountaine
Caspe
nine
tribes
and
a
halfe
of
the
Haebrewes
which
worshipped
the
Calfe
&
Serpent
of
Gold
and
draue
them
away
,
that
neuer
since
there
was
no
newes
of
them
,
neither
knew
any
man
if
they
were
in
the
Worlde
or
not
:
because
the
Sea
of
sande
,
or
the
sandy
Sea
,
by
a
certaine
inconuenience
of
sand
Grauel
or
Beche
,
swelled
and
rose
so
high
,
that
it
vtterly
took
from
them
the
way
into
this
our
Region
.
But
now
by
the
meane
of
the
new
Nauigation
that
the
Pollanders
haue
made
,
they
are
arriued
in
their
country
,
and
haue
espied
out
all
their
dooings
:
and
after
that
the
sayd
Hollanders
had
instructed
and
taught
them
in
the
science
and
knowledge
to
artillery
,
and
gun-powder
for
Harquebushes
&
dags
,
whereunto
they
are
maruelous
apt
and
ready
,
they
are
become
in
all
thinges
very
perfit
.
After
this
they
egged
them
forward
▪
to
take
weapon
in
hand
,
and
passe
the
sayd
Mountaine
by
Land
.
And
because
the
sandy
Sea
did
hinder
their
passage
,
it
appeareth
that
some
Dutchman
or
Italian
,
which
yet
men
knewe
not
,
but
notwithstanding
some
great
Astrologian
or
Cosmographer
taught
them
the
way
,
making
some
hill
plaine
with
fire
,
whereby
they
might
easilye
passe
,
which
is
a
thing
of
great
wonder
.
These
people
haue
two
mighty
great
armies
,
and
infinite
store
of
victualles
,
by
reason
of
the
fruitfulnesse
of
their
Country
,
they
are
also
well
prouided
of
all
maner
of
preparation
for
war
,
and
cunning
in
the
practise
of
their
Weapons
.
They
say
they
will
come
&
recouer
the
land
of
Promise
,
towards
the
which
the
first
army
is
already
very
neere
,
to
the
great
terror
and
dread
of
euery
man
which
hath
either
seene
or
hearde
of
them
.
The
spyes
which
haue
beene
sent
out
by
the
great
Turke
to
descry
them
,
do
affirme
,
that
beside
a
hundred
and
two
Armies
,
there
followe
an
infinite
number
of
people
,
as
well
foot-men
as
horse-men
,
and
theyr
first
army
is
already
arriued
vppon
the
limmits
of
Turky
,
putting
all
to
fire
and
sword
.
Theyr
language
is
bastard
Hebrew
:
and
because
men
speake
much
of
it
here
,
I
will
not
forgette
to
speake
also
something
thereof
woorthy
to
bee
noted
,
and
well
vnderstoode
:
The
Hebrewes
of
Constantinople
say
,
that
they
haue
certaine
prophesies
,
among
the
which
one
maketh
mention
,
that
from
the
foure
parts
of
the
world
,
shall
rise
a
people
,
and
come
into
Gog
and
Magog
,
and
then
shall
appeare
(
as
they
perswade
themselues
)
their
Messias
in
might
and
power
,
and
then
they
shall
haue
dominion
and
rule
in
the
world
,
whereof
they
secretly
reioyce
,
and
are
wonderous
glad
.
They
say
moreouer
,
that
there
is
a
prophecie
grauen
in
a
piller
set
at
Podromo
which
saith
thus
:
A
mighty
Prince
shall
rise
,
whose
beginning
shall
be
of
smal
reputation
,
who
by
his
Issue
shal
wax
of
such
force
and
strength
(
with
the
helpe
of
God
)
that
he
shall
bring
to
nothing
,
the
empire
and
rule
of
Ottoman
,
and
shall
be
the
right
possessor
and
inheritor
of
the
Empire
of
Constantinople
,
&
they
beleeue
all
that
ii
shall
be
this
Emperor
and
duke
of
Muscouia
.
which
is
already
in
great
estimation
among
the
Greeks
.
The
Turkes
haue
a
prophecie
,
which
they
sing
often
and
weepe
bitterly
the
while
,
for
it
betokeneth
and
denounceth
vnto
them
,
their
vtter
ruine
and
destruction
.
And
although
it
seeme
straunge
,
to
say
that
the
Turkes
haue
prophecies
,
it
is
no
meruaile
:
for
Balam
was
a
false
Prophet
:
the
Sybilles
also
prophecied
and
were
Pagans
.
For
all
these
causes
the
great
Turke
hath
forbidden
wine
,
&
will
that
all
men
goe
fiue
times
in
a
day
to
the
Moschea
,
and
pray
to
GOD
for
theyr
helth
and
safetie
.
And
so
he
prepareth
three
great
armies
,
one
against
the
Muscouites
,
another
againste
the
Soffie
,
and
the
third
for
to
goe
against
the
Haebrewes
of
the
Mountaines
of
Caspij
.
Within
these
fewe
dayes
you
shal
haue
other
newes
,
wherefore
thus
making
an
end
,
I
commend
me
vnto
your
good
Lordship
:
From
Rome
,
the
first
day
of
Iune
,
1606.
Your
faithfull
and
trusty
seruant
,
Signior
Valesco

Caleb
Shilock
his
prophesie
,
for
the
yeere
,
1607.
BE
it
knowne
vnro
all
men
,
that
in
the
yeare
1607.
when
as
the
Moone
is
in
the
Watrye
signe
,
the
world
is
like
to
bee
in
great
danger
:
for
a
learned
Iew
,
named
Caleb
Shilock
,
doth
write
that
in
the
foresaid
yeere
,
the
Sun
shall
be
couered
with
the
Dragon
in
the
morning
,
from
fiue
of
the
clocke
vntill
nine
,
and
will
appeare
like
fire
:
therefore
it
is
not
good
that
any
man
do
behold
the
same
,
for
by
beholding
thereof
,
hee
may
lose
his
sight
.
Secondly
,
there
shall
come
in
the
same
yeare
a
meruailous
great
flood
of
water
,
to
the
great
terror
and
amazement
uf
many
people
.
Thirdly
,
there
shall
arise
a
meruailous
great
wind
,
and
for
feare
thereof
many
people
shall
be
consumed
or
distraughted
of
their
wits
.
Fourthly
the
same
yeare
,
about
the
month
of
May
,
will
arise
another
wonderfull
great
flood
,
and
so
great
as
no
man
hath
seene
since
Noyes
flood
,
which
wil
continue
three
daies
,
and
three
nightes
,
whereby
many
Citties
and
Townes
which
standeth
vppon
Sandie
ground
will
be
in
great
danger
.
Fiftly
,
Infidels
and
Hereticks
,
through
great
feare
and
dread
,
will
flye
and
gather
together
,
and
asmuch
as
in
them
lies
,
make
war
against
Christian
princes
.
Sixtly
,
in
the
same
yeare
after
the
great
waters
be
past
,
about
the
end
of
the
yeere
will
be
very
great
and
fearefull
Sicknesses
:
so
that
many
people
are
like
to
die
by
the
infection
of
strange
diseases
.
Seauenthly
,
there
will
be
throughout
the
Worlde
great
trouble
and
contention
about
matters
of
Religion
,
and
wonderfull
strange
newes
vnto
all
people
,
as
concerning
the
same
.
Eightly
,
the
Turke
with
his
God
Mahomet
shall
bee
in
daunger
to
loose
his
Septer
,
through
the
great
change
and
alteration
in
his
Regiment
,
by
reason
of
famine
and
warres
,
so
that
the
most
part
of
his
people
will
rather
seeke
reliefe
from
the
Christian
,
then
from
him
.
Ninthlie
,
there
will
also
arise
great
Earth-quakes
,
whereby
diuers
goodly
buildings
&
high
houses
,
are
like
to
be
ouerthrowne
and
ruinated
.
Lastlie
,
there
will
be
great
remoouings
of
the
earth
in
diuers
places
,
so
that
for
feare
thereof
,
many
people
will
be
in
a
strange
amazement
and
terror
.
These
punishments
are
prognosticated
by
this
lerned
Iew
,
to
fall
vpon
the
whole
Worlde
by
reason
of
sinne
,
wherefore
it
behoueth
all
Christians
to
amende
their
euill
liues
,
and
to
pray
earnestly
vnto
GOD
to
with-hold
these
calamities
from
vs
,
and
to
conuart
our
harts
wholy
to
him
,
whereby
we
may
sind
fauour
in
our
time
of
neede
,
through
Iesus
Christ
our
Lord
.
Amen
.
