I have heard it credibly reported that there were seen about twelve yeers since many Suns at one time in Cornwall and in March 1639 towards Sun-set three Suns were seen in the West not far from Oxford I have not seen any of these Suns I mention my self onely in those six yeers in which I lived in the Countrey viz. 1636 1637 1638 1639 1640 c. many evenings I observed a strange fiery skie and unusuall forms in the Elements towards that part of the heaven where Oxford stands and towards Bark-shire Hamp-shire and so also towards Buckingham-shire c. I have the rather repeated these things that the incredulous of the times might not be wavering or a party now upon earth too confident that these prodigious Sights have no signification upon Mundane affairs The Historicall part is now ended and my own Judgement upon those three Suns apparent the nineteenth of November 1644 followeth Wherein if oft repetitions of the same thing trouble thee with modesty or courtesie passe them by for in Astrologie it cannot be avoided Nor do thou expect an exact Method from me sith it was no part of my meaning or could I conveniently do it Onely this I must tell thee that the Interpretation I write is I conceive grounded upon probable foundations and who lives to see a few yeers over his head will easily perceive I have unfolded as much as was fit to discover and that my Judgement is not a mile and a half from truth A Figure of the 3 Sonns appearan̄ ♂ 19 Nouember 1644. 9 45. A.M. ab ☍ ♃ in ☌ ☉ ad △ ♄ ♀ 21 ♎ ♍ 28 ☊ 2.38 ♌ 4 ♂ 2.56 ♋ R ♊ 26.5 ♊ 5.34 ♃ 24 47 R ♉ 2.0 ♉ 1.0 ♈ ♄ 14.32 R ♓ 28 ☋ 2.38 ♒ 4 ♑ ♐ 26.5 ☉ ☽ 7.51 ♐ ● 34 ♏ 20 ☿ 18 ♏ 1.0 Londinum Angliae MAny Philosophers are of opinion that these false Suns amongst the learned called Parelii do especially appear when many subtill moist clouds are betwixt us and the Sun Others that they are round clouds shining like the Sun or that they are images of the Sun in a thick and neighbouring cloud in the form of a Mirror But if that collected clouds or multitude of vapours or any Naturall cause produced such rare and unusuall Apparitions Why have we not such Sights oft It s well known such are not usually seen although once in a moneth we do not want plenty of Vapours which if they were so produced might cause monethly or oftner such like Apparitions And besides when these three Suns were seen it was a very fair Sunshine-day a very clear day no Clouds Vapours Foggs or Mists appearing Indeed for seven or eight days before we at London had extreme stormy Weather

Eclipses of the Sun and Moon we consider the place of the Zodiak and those Regions familiar to that place according to the distribution of Triplicities and what Cities at their Foundation had their Horoscope either the place of the Signe eclipsed or wherein either of the Lights at that time were in the degree defective and we also consider if the medium-Coeli of the Princes Nativity then governing be the Signe and Degree of the Eclipse Of all which we shall make good use in its proper time We must also consider those Countreys which are under or properly belong to the second Quadrangle viz. Taurus Leo Scorpio and Aquarius so that upon the matter any Prince or great person that hath his Ascendant Mid-heaven or place of the Sun or Moon in or about the 26 27 28 or 29 of Taurus Leo Scorpio or Aquarius is made capable of receiving good or ill by this present Eclipse Germany France England Denmark Italy Turkie Bohemia Spain Hungaria Moravia stand all subject to the frown of this Eclipse Part of Swedland Polonia Russia Valachia Westphalia Bavaria to all these Kingdoms and Countreys the Eclipse will be visible and these Countreys Ascendants having affinity either in Triplicity or being of the second Quadrangle must participate of the actions more or lesse which may be expected from this Eclipse As to men the fiery Trygon represents men of great Quality of highest Command Remember you great ones that in January last the same Decanate of Leo or the ten last degrees of this present Signe of Leo was afflicted and now the same face of the Signe again the second time all in one yeer Sed quae non prosunt singula multa juvant It s not true in Eclipses as in other things The more the merrier The fewer Eclipses the least hurt More fully of this in the sequele The second thing considerable is De genere Effectum viz. Of the kindes of the Effects IN what manner and kinde the Effects of the Eclipse shall manifest themselves we cannot discern unlesse we know what Planet principally rules the place defective Nam qui Planeta pluribus modis congruit ad utrumque locum defectus ad cardinem qui sequitur hic Solus dominabitur Ptol. cap. 7. lib. 2. What Planet hath most Dignities in the place of both the Lights this is when there 's an Eclipse of the Moon and the Angle subsequent he onely shall rule the Effects or demonstrate the quality of them as whether War Famine Plague c. In our Scheam Mars rules without any contradiction both the defective place and the Angle following he is neer some fixed Stars of his own nature and is in a semi-Sextill if that Aspect be considerable to the place afflicted by which he is the more fortified and made more significant in the Effects Although the Sun and Moon are powerfull in this Position yet consideratis considerandis they are at no time admitted to signifie the quality of the Effects Nam Sol Luna aliarum Stellarum sunt praecipuae causae eventuum Regunt Stellarum dominia dominantium vires aut confirmant aut languefaciunt Ptol. lib. 2. cap. 8. The Sun and Moon are Governours of other Stars and are principall causes of the Effects and sway the rule of the Stars and either strengthen or weaken their forces I may well say Mars is in Libra however he is in a humane Signe if he be in Virgo Figurae adspiciantur in quibus sit defectus in quibus sunt Stellae dominantes unde genus eventuum judicari poterit Ptol. lib. 2. cap. 7. Consider the form of the Signe in which the Eclipse is and wherein especially the Planets having any predominancy are and by that you may judge of the kindes of the effects The Signe wherein the Eclipse falls is Leo a ferall Signe Damnum ex domesticis mansuetis domesticis ad utilitates vitae accommodatis viz. ex bobus equis aliis Men shall receive damage by losse of their domestick tame beasts viz. Horse Ox Sheep so that I perceive here 's like to be great scarcity of these creatures after which expect a direfull Famine Firma sive fixa signa significant fundamenta aedificia Fixed signes intimate the Judgement of this Eclipse will in part fall upon things long since founded and upon Buildings Houses Towers Castles Forts the subversion of many ancient Seats erecting many new Fortifications c. As to men the Defect is in the Mid-heaven the Effects portend matter to Kingdoms Kings to men of middle-age to all manner of men in Authority whatsoever Ptol. cap. 7. lib. 2. Indeed the House of heaven is extremely considerable for it falling in the tenth the Effects shall be glorious famous eminent of mighty concernment published all over the world Mars either in Libra or Virgo must have judgement in this nature Quae habent figuram humanam significant eventus fore hominibus The over-ruling Planets being in Humane Signes Man and Makinde are concerned All which shall be explicated by and by The third thing considerable is Whether the Events of this Eclipse shall intend good or ill COnsideratio vero Stellarum quae praecipuum jus in commixtione habent indicat eventuum qualitatem Which in effect tells you what I formerly repeated viz. That those Planets which in their mixture one with another have most Dignities do shew the quality of the Events It might be easily judged that sith Mars rules the Ascendant and place eclipsed and is entring Libra his Detriment and is naturally an enemy to all good and to man that we must expect but sad Times and in plain terms that we must look for a wofull desolation and destruction of man for the Ascendant signifieth in generall Mankinde or Commonalty of every Nation So then according to the Ptolomeian Doctrine without any Comment evil is to be looked for from the Effects of this Eclipse How to apply all preceding to the present Purpose is now my Task NEc in mixtionibus tantum errantium congressus intelligo sed aliarum quoque similes naturas sive fixarum sive locorum signiferi vel familiaritates cum errantibus supra indicatae sunt Nor do I saith Ptolomey in the mixture of the Planets onely consider their Conjunctions or sole Aspects of what nature soever they be but also the nature as well of the fixed Stars as places of heaven if they consent with the nature and quality of the Planets Si Planeta vincens super Eclipsin sit maleficus significat malum detrimentum An evil Planet ruling the Eclipse he portends evil c. This is also the Opinion of Junctine When I see Aquarius descending in the fourth and the Dragons tail so neer the Cusp of the House and Saturn Retrograde in the seventh a fixed Signe What assurance have I that the most stately Buildings of this Kingdom shall escape ruine or most ancient Cities and

wants strength to manage his feeble body in a time of so much sorrow as the Eclipse saith is approaching When the daring or cruell Enemy comes neer us what shall the infirm man do neither able to move or be moved Perish he must flee he cannot there 's no way assigned but death yea although he was the son of a father most eminent But again to the purpose Si in Revolvendo anno Regni Stella in signo depressionis inventa fuerit magnus aliquis vir ex stellae ipsius natura morietur Ptol. Apho. 31. In handling the Judgement or Revolution of a yeer if a Planet that is usually taken for Lord of that Kingdom be in his depression viz. either in his detriment or fall some great person of the nature of that Planet will die that yeer This is like to be fatall to the Kingdom of England for in Figura mundi Saturn was in his fall In this present Eclipse Mars that hath sole dominion in the Ascendant and place eclipsed is in his detriment It cannot be the death of any vulgar or ordinary man that is hereby intended to be sent to another world Mars represents great persons principall Commanders in our Armies as well as in his Majesties Truely I fear an eminet Commander Cavete viri qui sunt tanquam Princes You that are in esteem like Princes and domineer like little Kings beware every one of you in every County and City you are said to be gods you shall die like other men c. disgraced odious c. It s not one onely man that is intended by the heavens to be the mock of Fortune and scorn of Mankinde there 's a signification of many that are to undergo a very hard and unpleasant Doom ere the Influence of this Eclipse shall have period or the Porrent of the three Suns be fully determined Obsecro mi Domine mitt● qu●m missurus es I may be derided for predicting so much but I rather laugh at their folly that having been oft premonished amend not their lives and endeavour Composition of these unhappie Dissentions now too prevalent all over Christendom What great one soever thou art of England or of any Nation of Europe that hast the 28 or 27 of Leo ascending at thy birth or the same degree of Taurus Scorpio or Aquarius to thee I say Thou art in great danger of death or mighty disturbance in thy health ere this Revolution of almost two yeers be compleated I am not idle but thou art mad and out of thy wits if thou doest not beware in time Let us admit thou hast the same degree culminating look to thine Honour Crown and Dignity if thou art a King thou shalt assuredly receive blemish in thy fame and estimation nor shalt thou escape without hazarding thy Crown or most fearfull scandals on thy Reputation Hast thou the same degrees ascending on the Cusp of the seventh Art thou a King thou shalt have War unlook'd for enemies without number domestick and forreign shall invade thee look to be plunged to purpose and to suffer discontent without period those as dear unto thee as thy wife in thy bosom shall betray thee by indirect counsels Hast thou the said degree upon the Cusp of the fourth house Art thou Emperour of Constantinople Thy father left thee more Kingdoms then thou shalt leave thy son Lose part of thy Dominions I desire thee the Fates will have it so Art thou of the Noble Austrian Family or art thou King of England France Spain or Denmark Be all or any of you assured to have a share in these Calamities a part or parcell an arm or a branch of your Kingdoms will be lopt off from you Is there any man hath the Sun or the Moon in the 28 degree of Leo or Aquarius at the time of his birth let him ponder these words of Ptolomey lib. 2. cap. 8. Sed periculosum in primis inevitabile est si ipsae Eclipticorum locorum partes aut oppositae coinciderint cum gradibus alter utrius Luminum quos geniturae tempore possederunt The sense of which words run thus That if an Eclipse happen in that Eclipticall degree in which at the time of birth either of the Lights viz. Sun or Moon were it s an argument saith he of some danger at hand hardly to be avoided We cannot forget that fearfull losse his Majestie of Spain suffered not long after the Eclipfe of the Sun in Geminis 1639. Truely I fear that same potent Prince must have another such like Brush for the three Suns doth in a manner deliver so much and look carefully what Nation or Prince suffered upon the Influence of that Eclipse shall again by these three Suns apparition in a more then miraculous way if it be possible be loaded with misfortune Prodigies in heaven of heaven and from heaven appear not in vain Eclipses do ever foreshew some notorious and eminent matter neer hand yea in a most peaceable season The Courts of all Princes shall be stricken dead with fear horrour and amazement Privie Counsellours shall be trampled down like dirt under our feet In the East from the East or somewhat South-east shall the beginnings of some miraculous Accidents have some first life motion and beginning But this is quite out of the Text If as the wisest men conceive the Sun and Moon do govern our body and spirit and so moderate the Elements that all men even every vulgar person understands it what shall we then think to be more admired or formidable then when we upon a sudden see these most glorious Bodies obscured and their light taken from our present sight We may from thence imagine Somewhat more then ordinary is drawing on It was therefore well and rightly said of Ptolomey Cardinales Eclipses sunt pollentiores ac vehementius afficiunt quipp● quum cardines sint mundi prima loca in quibus cum Planetae collocati cum Majestate praesideant Eclipses that are in Angles are more prevalent and more fiercely afflict for Angles are the chiefest places of the Figure wherein when Planets are posited they rule as it were with Majestie Our Eclipse begins in the tenth its middle and end is there also How wonderfull and eminent Designes Changes of Fortunes in the states of great persons is hereby to be expected and these all over Europe doubtlesse such things shall hereby come to passe as this Generation now living hath scarce been acquainted with the like Here 's mad work in hand Kings and Lords clouded Clowns and silly fellows climbing aloft The world is almost turning Topsie-turvey What is the matter that a sudden Affright shall amaze the Italian Princes They that er●-w●ile thought of no such thing shall now tremble for fear So shall Pamphilio the Pope fume to no purpose and be in as much danger by a Conspiracy at home as if he were a road ●nd amidst a rude sort of enemies But whether this Eclipse shall point out his
