Chap.
1.
Of
the
enterance
of
the
Sunne
in
the
first
point
of
Aries
,
and
of
the
Planets
that
are
Lordes
of
the
yeare
.
WE
read
in
the
holy
scriptures
,
that
great
kingdomes
and
princely
Cities
for
their
sinnes
haue
beene
altered
and
brought
vnder
the
gouernement
of
strange
nations
:
and
that
many
townes
for
their
wickednesse
haue
béene
punished
,
and
brought
in
subiection
:
and
Christ
sayth
,
that
we
neuer
know
him
but
when
wee
are
visited
with
some
affliction
.
I
find
by
right
calculation
,
that
this
yeare
of
our
Lorde
1598.
according
to
the
meridian
of
the
towne
of
Deuentre
,
and
other
places
lying
vnder
52.
degrées
and
40.
minutes
,
and
after
the
olde
stile
beginneth
vpon
the
10.
of
March
,
and
according
to
the
new
stile
vpon
the
20.
of
March
in
the
afternoone
,
a
little
after
12.
of
the
clocke
,
when
the
sunne
entreth
into
Aries
,
at
which
time
it
standeth
in
the
middle
of
the
element
,
and
then
night
and
day
through
all
the
worlde
are
all
of
one
length
,
and
as
Ouid
saith
,
noua
temporisaetas
,
then
the
Sunne
by
his
heat
openeth
the
earth
,
and
reuiueth
it
,
which
by
the
cold
of
the
Winter
season
was
deade
and
withered
,
making
grasse
,
trées
,
and
all
thinges
else
so
fayre
and
gréene
,
that
it
maketh
all
creatures
liuing
to
reioyce
,
and
therevpon
all
learned
men
are
of
opinion
,
that
this
time
of
the
year
,
the
world
heauen
,
and
earth
,
and
all
the
creatures
therein
were
created
,
and
many
wonderfull
workes
of
God
performed
therein
as
the
deliuery
of
the
children
of
Israel
out
of
Aegipt
,
the
conception
of
the
Virgin
Mary
,
and
after
that
his
passion
,
death
,
and
resurrection
vpon
the
same
day
.
I
find
Saturne
ascendent
Eastwarde
in
the
24.
degrée
of
Sagittarius
in
the
second
house
,
Iupiter
in
the
2.
degrée
of
Cancer
,
in
the
8.
house
,
Mars
in
the
4.
degrée
of
Taurus
&
the
6.
house
,
the
Sunne
in
the
first
degrée
of
Aries
,
and
the
4.
house
,
Venus
in
the
thirde
degrée
of
Aries
and
the
4.
house
hard
by
the
Sunne
,
Mercury
in
Pisces
,
the
Moone
in
the
11.
degrée
of
Pisces
,
and
the
4.
house
,
the
Dragous
heade
in
the
first
degrée
of
Gemini
in
the
seuenth
house
,
and
so
beginneth
this
year
1598.
whereby
we
plainely
sée
,
that
the
Moone
and
Mercury
are
Lords
of
the
yeare
,
and
Mars
assistant
,
and
are
both
founde
in
a
watery
signe
.
The
rest
of
the
planets
for
the
most
parte
are
weake
and
badly
plac'st
,
wherevpon
we
must
grounde
our
iudgement
,
and
procéede
accordingly
,
making
the
situation
and
coniunction
of
euery
Planet
,
whereby
it
is
found
,
that
this
shall
bee
none
of
the
best
yeares
,
for
that
the
effects
of
the
yeares
95.96
.
and
97.
do
yet
continue
,
whereby
I
iudge
,
that
this
yeare
many
craftie
and
secreat
enterprises
will
bee
wrought
both
by
water
and
by
land
,
and
that
there
is
a
speciall
matter
pretended
,
which
will
be
to
the
ouerthrow
and
aduancement
of
diuers
persons
,
whereby
certayne
prouinces
shall
bee
brought
into
extreame
misery
and
desolation
,
specially
such
countries
as
lie
vnder
Cancer
,
and
her
quadrangle
,
as
Brabant
,
Flanders
,
Fraunce
,
and
the
prouinces
bordering
vppon
it
.
Ciprianus
Leouitius
saith
touching
the
reuolution
of
this
yeare
,
that
it
threatneth
vs
with
much
rayne
,
great
sicknesse
,
and
bloudy
and
cruell
warres
,
as
also
that
certaine
Princes
and
great
men
both
spirituall
and
temporall
shal
be
ouerthrowne
and
cast
in
prison
,
whereby
much
misery
and
grieuous
alterations
shall
happen
among
the
common
people
:
for
that
in
this
reuolution
of
the
world
the
effect
of
two
eclipses
,
one
of
the
Sunne
,
the
other
of
the
Moone
shall
happen
.
Wherefore
I
counsell
all
good
Christians
to
be
watchfull
,
that
these
thinges
come
not
sodainly
vppon
them
,
and
so
I
will
ende
this
Chapter
with
the
wordes
of
Dauid
.
Ni
Deus
aedificet
frustrà
domus
illa
paratur
,
Quam
volet
humanus
constituisse
labor
.
Chap.
2.
Of
good
and
euil
fortune
,
strife
&
contention
betweene
men
and
women
,
being
young
and
louely
like
Venus
dearlinges
,
vpon
whom
all
the
world
doth
cast
their
eyes
.
FOr
that
mans
nature
is
addicted
to
hear
and
sée
strange
thinges
,
I
haue
here
set
downe
the
signification
of
the
heauenly
influences
of
this
yeare
1598.
which
I
write
to
giue
cause
of
watchfulnesse
to
carelesse
men
:
I
find
by
the
right
calculation
of
the
prouincial
figure
,
that
louely
Venus
,
coupeled
with
Iupiter
and
Mercurie
,
signifieth
good
fortune
to
Venus
children
,
women
,
yong
maides
,
and
all
swéete
Venus
dearlinges
,
which
gladly
take
all
that
is
giuen
them
,
they
shall
haue
good
fortune
by
gifts
,
presentes
,
Iewelles
,
apparell
,
and
other
toyes
,
which
if
they
haue
not
it
will
be
great
griefe
vnto
them
.
I
finde
the
Planet
Venus
well
placed
in
Aquarius
,
which
signifieth
great
fauour
to
all
women
in
generall
,
as
well
spiritual
as
temporal
:
women
shall
by
nature
flourish
,
and
be
loftie
,
they
shall
be
much
beloued
,
and
diuers
that
are
of
meane
parentage
and
degrée
,
shall
by
mariage
rise
and
be
preferred
to
high
estate
,
but
some
of
them
must
take
care
that
when
they
are
at
the
highest
,
that
they
kéep
themselues
at
that
stay
:
such
proude
&
lordly
women
,
that
often
stumble
at
a
straw
,
and
are
soone
troden
vpon
the
toes
,
which
alway
sing
the
vnpleasant
song
,
they
shall
cause
great
sorrow
and
grief
vnto
their
husbands
by
chiding
and
contention
,
for
that
a
woman
which
chideth
without
reason
,
doth
often
driue
her
husbande
out
of
dores
,
whereby
shall
arise
strife
,
hartes
griefe
,
mourning
,
and
other
misfortunes
.
I
finde
Mars
and
Venus
in
coniunction
.
Dabit
incestas
,
libidines
,
fornicationes
,
adulteria
,
coniunctiones
virorum
ac
mulierum
horrendas
&
abominandas
.
In
the
last
part
of
the
yeare
I
find
there
will
bée
great
deceit
and
vntruth
among
men
,
whom
women
and
maides
shall
féede
with
fayre
wordes
,
and
pay
them
with
the
like
,
standing
much
vpon
their
credites
and
reputations
,
also
I
find
the
Planet
Venus
to
bee
retrograde
,
which
signifieth
great
quarrels
and
contentions
with
such
as
men
haue
made
of
their
secreat
counsels
,
where
vpon
shall
follow
griefe
,
sorrow
,
and
diuers
diseases
.
You
shall
likewise
heare
of
great
strife
betwéene
men
and
their
wiues
,
whereby
controuersie
will
arise
,
so
that
many
weddinges
shall
be
holden
,
where
there
wil
be
no
musicke
,
and
where
the
Lorde
or
rulers
of
the
land
shall
be
betrayed
.
I
find
also
in
the
prouinciall
figure
,
that
Iupiter
is
eleuated
aboue
Venus
,
which
signifieth
that
womens
nature
is
alwayes
desirous
of
pleasure
,
for
they
are
the
mother
of
our
generation
:
They
shall
also
bee
fortunate
in
childbearing
,
and
are
worthy
of
honour
in
all
places
.
The
quadrangle
of
Mars
and
Venus
bringeth
no
good
tydinges
to
olde
men
,
and
others
that
vse
many
women
,
for
they
shall
bée
bitten
and
not
hurt
,
euery
man
looke
to
himselfe
and
be
careful
.
Chap.
3.
Of
the
Eclipses
of
this
yeare
1598.
and
of
wars
and
contentions
,
and
other
vntrue
dealings
among
men
,
which
the
Almightie
God
according
to
his
great
goodnes
can
change
and
conuert
as
pleaseth
him
,
and
of
the
beginning
&
ending
of
the
Turkes
.
WE
are
al
greatly
to
prayse
the
Lord
,
that
he
hath
giuen
vs
the
right
knowledge
of
Astronomie
,
and
made
vs
know
the
nature
of
Eclipses
,
to
shew
causas
,
rationes
&
demonstrationes
,
and
when
the
Sunne
and
Moone
are
eclipsed
,
diuers
coniunctions
of
the
vppermost
Planets
are
openly
séene
,
(
which
neuer
fayleth
)
as
you
may
read
in
the
books
of
ancient
Astronomers
,
as
also
in
writings
.
I
find
that
in
this
yeare
1598.
we
shall
haue
thrée
Eclipses
,
one
of
the
Sunne
,
and
two
of
the
Moone
:
the
first
Eclipse
of
the
Moone
will
bee
séene
here
in

and
Pole
,
being
vnder
52.
degrées
and

,
in
the
third

of

,
not

from
the
Dragons
tayle
,
and
will
beginne
to
be
eclipsed
at
4.
of
the
clocke
and
24.
minutes
,
and
in
the
morning
end
at
8.
of
the
clocke
14.
minutes
:
we
of
Deuentre
and
the
low
countries
shall
sée

beginning
and
the
middle

but
not
the
end
thereof
:
the
effect
and
working
of
this
first
Eclipse
shal
continue
a

yeare
.
The
second
Eclipse
shall
be

the

,
and
shal
be

vpon
the

Februarie
(
Stilo

and
(
Stilo
nouo
)
vppon
the

,
and
50.
minutes

and
end
at

.
This
Eclipse
shall
take
effect
the
17.
of
July
1598.
and
end
the
22.
of
Iune
1600.
The
third
Eclipse
shal
be
of
the
Moone
,
which
shall
be
séene
vpon
the
6.
of
August
,
and
after
the
new
stile
the
16.
of

This

shal
take
effect
the
24.
of
August
(
Stilo
antiquo
)
and
ende
on
the
fift
of
December
1598.
The
Arabian
and
Chaldean
Astronomers
say
,
that
one
Eclipse
of
the
Sun
is
worse
then
6.
Eclipses
of
the
Moone
,
specially
when
they
happen
in
one
month
,
as
now
they
doe
.
Vno
mense
subit
tenebras
cum
Lum
vterum
que
,
Tunc
gemina
causa
tristia
fata
ferunt
.
We
haue
this
yeare
likewise
diuers
coniunctions
and
aspects
of
Planets
,
which
signifie
much
warres
,
troubles
,
mutinies
,
bloodsheddinges
,
and
secret
practises
in
the
low
Countries
,
and
those
that
lie
West
southwest
from
it
.
The
countries
and
kingdoms
that
lye
Eastward
towardes
the
rising
of
the
Sunne
,
and
vnder
Aries
,
Cancer
,
Leo
and
Scorpion
,
shal
be
vexed
with
wars
,
blood-sheddings
,
and
secret
practises
,
which
are
Grecia
,
Turkie
,
Muscouia
,
Swethland
,
Russia
,
Walachia
,
and
certaine
countries
in
the
Mediterranean
sea
,
as
Marsellus
,
the
Prouince
of
Languedoc
,
Gascony
,
Dauphine
,
Fraunce
,
England
,
Hungary
,
Bohemia
,
Austria
,
Crabuten
,
Corinthia
,
Vianne
,
Seuenbergen
,
and
such
as
are
contributary
to
the
Turke
,
the
people
thereof
shal
be
spoyled
,
&
brought
into
great
miseries
(
as
Leouitius
saith
)
In
the
yeares
1544.
48.
and
49.
in
which
there
appeared
diuers
Eclipses
in
Scorpion
,
the
Turkes
and
other
Christians
that
had
fallen
from
the
fayth
of
Christ
had
a
great
ouerthrowe
by
the
mightie
king
of
Persia
,
as
Historiographers
do
witnesse
.
Also
the
Emperours
Maximilian
and
Rodulphus
,
with
other
mightie
Princes
,
as
Sigismund
Bathorius
in
Transiluania
,
and
diuers
princes
and
Lordes
that
haue
rebelled
against
the
Turke
,
with
other
Princes
and
Lordes
by
Gods
helpe
for
certain
years
haue
had
great
fortunes
and
victories
against
our
auncient
enemy
the
Turke
:
so
shall
the
Christian
princes
by
Gods
power
,
as
the
chief
of
al
princes
haue
much
more
good
fortune
and
aduancement
against
the
Turke
and
Sarrasens
,
so
they
follow
it
,
as
the
olde
verse
sayth
,
Fronte
capillata
post
est
occasio
calua
:
We
may
sit
at
a
table
and
yet
eate
no
meate
,
and
so
the
good
fortune
that
God
sendeth
vs
may
be
neglected
,
if
wee
follow
it
not
,
and
for
that
in
the
yeare
1584.
it
was
the
fiery
Triangle
,
and
that
the
Turkes
Empire
began
in
the
watry
Triangle
,
so
his
Empyre
shall
decay
and
bee
ouerthrowne
in
the
fierie
Trigonis
or
Triangle
,
which
decay
hath
begunne
now
within
fewe
yeares
vnder
the
fiery
Triangle
,
as
in
the
yeares
1595.
96.
and
97.
it
hath
well
béene
seene
,
but
the
greatest
fall
and
hardest
pinch
that
the
kingdome
of
Mahomet
shall
indure
,
according
to
my
iudgement
shall
be
in
the
yeares
1603.
or
1607.
and
then
in
an.
1610
it
shal
be
wholly
ouerthrowne
.
Such
prophesies
certaine
of
the
Turkes
themselues
do
write
,
which
they
do
much
feare
,
and
are
grieued
thereat
,
for
in
the
said
prophesies
it
is
euidently
said
,
that
the
Citie
of
Constantinople
shal
not
continue
aboue
150.
years
in
his
authoritie
,
neyther
yet
their
religion
aboue
1000.
years
,
As
also
that
there
shal
not
be
aboue
14.
Emperours
of
Turkey
,
that
are
of
Ottomans
race
,
and
then
it
shall
decay
and
be
wholly
ouerthrowne
,
which
if
it

Chap.
4.
Of
sicknesses
and
fruitfulnes
of
this
yeare
.
HAuing
considered
the
constitution
of
the
6
house
and
the
Lords
of
the
same
,
from
whence
and
from
the
coniunction
of
the
Moone
we
make
our
iudgement
of
sicknesses
,
I
finde
Saturne
to
bee
Lorde
of
the
6.
house
in
the
Ram
,
which
signifieth
new
diseases
in
the
head
,
omnia
genera
apoplexiae
,
cathares
,
paynes
in
the
hart
&
breast
,
laskes
,
red
melisoen
,
burning
feauers
,
pestilences
,
agues
,
yellow
and
blacke
Iandis
.
The
yeare
shal
be
indifferent
fruitful
of
all
kind
of
corne
,
as
Rye
,
Barley
,
Wheat
,
Oats
,
Pease
and
Beans
,
but
fruit
vpon
trées
because
Venus
is
found
to
bee
retrograde
,
shall
indure
some
hurt
,
for
by
reason
of
the
quadrangle
of
Mars
,
they
shal
be
hindred
in
their
growth
:
Oyle
,
Hony
,
Hops
and
Flaxe
shal
be
scant
,
but
Wine
will
be
good
and
great
plentie
:
The
Sommer
season
shal
be
cold
and
moyst
with
strong
winds
,
whereby
Bees
,
Shéepe
,
and
fruites
of
the
earth
shall
indure
much
hurt
:
all
fourefooted
beastes
shal
be
profitable
and
giue
good
increase
,
Butter
,
Chéese
and
Bacon
in
great
plentie
,
and
an
indifferent
yeare
of
Acornes
.
There
wil
be
no
want
of
fruites
,
but
rather
want
of
amendment
in
men
,
for
that
wickednes
dayly
increaseth
more
and
more
,
and
we
giue
our
minds
rather
to
beastly
cruelties
,
then
loue
and
Christian
humanity
.

THis

Beginning

Wherein

In

At

The

The

Eclipses

One

in
The

of

Thirteene

great
which
causeth
griefe

For
diuers
Planets

meete
in

point

As
Mars
and
Saturne
both
of

Being
conioynd
presageth

,
And

The
first
and
last
dayes
of
this
present
Month
Mars
and
Mercurius
are
the
gouernors
,
Whereby
strange
thinges
shall
then
be
heard
and
seene
,
With
vprores
and
rebellions
manifolde
:
The
common
people
thereby
shall
it
rew

Mercurius
many
subtill
sleights
shall
vse

But
he
and
his
in

shall
dearely
buy
it
.
This
doth
the
heauens
manifestly
show
,
In
Westerne
parts
shall
be
accomplished
,
Till
Peters
bande
before
the
dore
doth
come
,
Or
not
long
after
to
no
little
woe
,
For
Mars
by
night
his
corne
shal
take
in
,
And
strangely
worke
in
couert
of
the
shade
,
That
men
may
not
behold
his
actions
,
For
many
thereby
might
sore
moued
be
,
What
shall
hereof
ensue
I
will
not
say
,
Time
will
it
make
t'
appeare
in

Pleasant

as

Mercurius

In

there
shall

That

now
the

Sol
entereth

and
with
heate

rare

And
like

beginneth

Whereby
this
yeare
shall
be

With
more
increase
then

the

Which
will
bee
cause
of

But
at

Shall

Saint

Whereby
great
mischiefe
will
thereof
ensue

Gainst

statutes
of

And
in

end
will
cause
a

To

Which
likewise

The

Therefore

On

I
not

Although

For

(
As
