A96277 Bellum Hybernicale: or, Ireland's vvarre astrologically demonstrated, from the late celestiall-congresse of the two malevolent planets, Saturne and Mars, in Taurus, the ascendent of that kingdome. VVherein likewise, their future opposition in the signs Sagittary and Gemini, (most ominous to London, and many other of the south and west parts of England) is mathematically handled. The ignorance, malice, mistakes, errors, insolencies, and impertinencies, of Iohn Booker, (in his astrologicall observations upon the said conjunction, in a late pamphlet of his, styled, A bloody Irish almanack, &c.) discovered, corrected, refuted, and retorted: and the author further vindicated, from his, and Master Lilly's former frivolous, false, and malicious aspersions, throughout the whole discourse. / By Capt. Geo: Wharton, student in astronomy. Wharton, George, Sir, 1617-1681. 1646 (1646) Wing W1543; Thomason E365_21; Thomason E374_9; ESTC R15814 23,053 41

In briefe both Haly Guido Messahalah and all other sound Astrologers tell us that this meeting of the two Malevolents hath signification of Warres Contentions and strifes fraudulent dealing c.

GEO WHARTON Student in Astronomy Ego 〈◊〉 tumultum Nec mori per vim metuam tenente Caesare terras Printed in the Yeere 1647. TO THE IMPARTIALL AND Juditious Reader IT is high time now after so many affronts and such multiplicity of rayling and scornfull Language uttered against me in severall silly Pamphlets by that profest Mountebanke in Astrology John Bookes to vindicate my selfe from the Calumnies Scandalls and false Accusations which his unsatiable Ambition and implacable malice hath most wickedly accused me of And thereby I shall discover how much his Envy to my Penne and Person hath transported him beyond the bound of modesty and rendered him incapable both of Reason and Knowledge in the Art whereof be professes himselfe to be a Master I have in part answered M. Lilly in my Prognostication for the ensuing yeare 1647. And here according to my promise I shall Catechise John Booker and both of them as occasion serves The subject or matter here intended is the notable Conjunction of the 2. Malevolent Planets in the Signe Taurus upon the 12. of June this yeare 1646. the effects whereby will be in great force untill the 21. day of October 1647. Which Conjunction hath lately beene most ignorantly treated of by John Booker in a certaine Pamphlet of his stiled A Bloody Irish Almanacke c. and many false observations he hath drawn thence and published not upon any reall grounds in Astrology but merely out of his inveterate malice and hatred to the Kingdome of Ireland whereby both that and this Kingdome have beene deluded and Astrology shamefully perverted and defamed In which respect as likewise upon this occasion to free my selfe from his former Aspertions I have published the following discourse wherein the same Conjunction of Saturne and Mars is more Artificially handled and also their future Opposition with a touch concerning their next Conjunction which will happen in the Signe Gemini the Ascendent of London which will be farre more terrible and of greater concernment to London and other parts of this Kingdome then the Conjunction in Taurus can be to Ireland I have palpably unmasked his malice discovered his ignorance divulged and corrected his Errours and misapplications of the Effects of this celestiall meeting If his immodest Language hath anywhere incited me to too much freedome of speech I shall crave his excuse when he beggs my Pardon for his former Insolencies I hate not his or any mans person but his Sinne The method is Rough cast like my selfe if the matter be better polished I care not I know I shall not please all neither would I some for want of judgement and some for want of Love and others for lack of Loyalty will condemne me but none of these doe I regard It is to the impartiall and juditious I appeale and to their judgement onely will I submit And if they please to adventure but their Patience as I have done my Paines which is not a little I doubt not of the issue I have no ungodly ends in this or any other of my writings my Wishes are full as good as John Bookers I wish all happynesse to the King and Queenes Majesty and the Royall Progeny and an end to the Miseries of this languishing Kingdome I love and wish for the Booke of Common-Prayer againe that was Sealed with the Blood of so many Martyrs till which be I expect not to see Religion in its Pristine puritie I delight not in War not can I pray for an unjust or Dishonourable Peace From my Study in an honest Cavaliers house in York-shire the 10. of Septemb. 1646. So saith a true and free-borne English-man an abhorrer of all manner of Treasons and Rebellions one that loveth all manner of Christians and us a great honourer of True and Lawfull Parliaments Geo Wharton Bellum Hybernicale c. NOt many dayes before the famous and somtimes flourishing Vniversity and City of Oxford was sacrificed as a Peace-offering by some of the more Pacificall Lords and accordingly surrendered upon Articles otherwise honourable into the sacrilegious hands of the Sectaries and Schismatiques of this Kingdome viz. in this yeare 1646. which is from the Creation of the world 5595. to omit all other frivolous and fruitlesse computations and Chronologies wherewith Booker hath foolishly stuffd crammed up a malitious lying Pamphlet by him styled A Bloody Irish Almanack c. upon Friday the twelfe day of Iune there happened a notable Conjunction of the two malevolent Planets Saturn and Mars Which Conjunction notwithstanding it did not manifest it selfe with any stormes thunder or lightning as Iohn Booker prognosticated in his un-sainted state-lying-Kalender nor hath been the Prodromus of such losse ruine destruction and desolation to the Kingdome of Ireland as is mentioned in the said Pamphlet yet questionlesse the effects of that malicious meeting have already been notably shewed both in Ireland and in many other Kingdome and Countries Cities and Townes and upon particular Persons who had any congruencie therewith in the Radix or Revolution of their Nativities But to the intent that this barking mungrell may not delude the ignorant with his pedling trash nor detract from or otherwise abuse a whole Nation with his nauceous and menacing expressions I have assumed a liberty of publishing this following Discourse which is void of all envy malice or partiality but freely modestly and sincerely relating whatsoever concernes this Coelestiall meeting according to the rules of Art and the judgement of the most approved Astrologers ancient and modern wherein the judicious and indifferent Readers may plainly and orderly perceive the ignorance and malice of this trifling parasite and rightly understand the nature and quality of the effects of this coelestiall congresse when they shall begin to operate how long continue what Nations or Countries are therein principally concerned and how far the Kingdome of Ireland in particular concluding whether or no that so long oppressed Kingdome be ordained for the stage whereon such bloudy-minded hel-hounds as himselfe are to perpetrate their cruelty I will not trouble the judicious Reader with any examples of such events as have formerly happened in England or elswhere upon the like Conjunctions For that I acknowledge him to have collect●d in part But I will first examine the
Princes and great Lords and their Secretaries and Stewards And they are both if not only Angular in the Figure This promises well to His Majesty and his Servants and not one jot of ill to Ireland By this time a Man may call a Spade a Spade Let me see the face of him dare call the Queenes Majesty a Traitor But the States have voted her so for her Love so exemplarily shewed to the King her Husband Is there not one Lord nor Ten Commoners yet ashamed of it Yes some Blush others are bold and impudent some stupidly Senselesse others wrangling away their lives by strange and Noisome diseases some are threatned by Prodigious Births and those too of their owne begetting And what not to render a People palpably accursed miserably and fully wretched Ireland now demands a reason for the Ordnance of the 24 of October 1644. And askes if you 'll buy any Land there Scotland tells you they have as great an Interest in the King as England and will in some of the Lands too if you will needs In a word wee all looke back and say Lord what have wee done and been a doing for 7. yeares Some make question whether they be awake or in a dreame All men are at a stand yet still in Action The besotted Crew do quake and murmure say little but think mischievously Furorna 〈◊〉 an rapit vis acrior An culpa Responsum 〈◊〉 Tacent or a pallor albus inf●cit Mentesque perculsa stupent Doth fury blind or greater power command Is sin the cause Oh let me understand They silent are their checkes are paler made And feares their horror-strucken minds invade But it is the Conjunction of Saturne and Mars upon the 28. of Iune 1648. before mentioned will be assuredly fatall to London and many other places of England I pray God avert the judgements thereby threatned and incline the hearts of his Majesties Subjects that as they are or ought to be all Christians so to be of one mind and cordially to unite in obedience to God and loyalty to him their Pious Soveraign I have set the Scheme here that in case Iohn Booker have occasion to write of it he may have it exactly done ready to his hand for the Meridian of London and publish it without feare of further correction Thema Coelicum eoc tabulis Directionum Regiomontani ad tempus Apparens ☌ ♄ et ♂ die Mercurij Junij 28 1648 Hor. min.

You see Sir the Regall Signe Leo culminates the Sun who is Lord thereof and Venus and Mercury are in the ninth house of the Figure and Iupiter possesseth the mid-heaven The Conjunction happens in the eleventh deg. and eight min. of Gemini the Ascen. of London and in the eight house which is the house of death labours sadnes and heritage of dead men and Mars is Lord of the Ascend for the 3. deg. and 29. min. of Scorpio ascends at the time of this meeting And he likewise disposeth of the second House where the Dragons taile also miserably afflicteth I shall leave the judgement to Iohn Booker only I shall tell him thus much that I thinke the Cavaliers will by this time challenge a better esteem from the City of London then now they dare and perhaps enjoy their own without Composition I shall say no more but conclude with an Application of that pertinent and pious complaint of the Acquitaines occasioned upon the Deposing of King Richard the second to the present condition of this wretched Kingdome O good God! Where is the world become Saints are turned to Serpents and Doves into Devils The English Nation which hath been accompted fierce only against their Foes and alwaies faithfull to their Friends are now become both fierce and faithlesse against their lawfull and loving Prince and have most barbarously betrayed him Who would ever have thought that Christians that civill People that any men would thus have violated all Religion all Lawes and all honest and civill demeanor And although the Heavens blush at the view and the earth sweats at the burthen of so vile a villany and all men proclaime and exclaime upon shame and confusion against them yet they neither feel the horror nor shrinke at the shame nor feare the revenge but stand upon termes some of defence for the lawfulnes of their dealing and some of excuse for the necessity Well let them be able to blind the world and to resist mans revenge yet shal they never be able to escape either the fight or vengeance of Almighty God which wee dayly expect and earnestly desire to be powred upon them Alas good King Charles thy nature was too gentle and thy government too mild for so stiffe and stubborne a People what King will ever repose any trust in such unnaturall-Subjects but fetter them with Lawes as Theeves are with Irons What carriage hereafter can recover their credit What time will be sufficient to blot out this blemish What other action could they have done more joyfull to their enemies more wofull to their friends and more shamefull to themselves O corruption of times O conditions of men Hor. lib. 1.
