And here follo∣weth of Saturne and what Sa∣turne is.

Page [unnumbered]

SAturne, what is Saturne, he is the fyrste Planet and the wickeddeste, and he vnbeginneth the Zodyacke but once in thyrtye yeares, than fol∣loweth it forth in the Zodyacke by xii. sygnes, that Saturne reigneth in eche sygnes ii. yeares & a halfe, in .vi. sygnes he raigneth xv. yeares. And in all the xii. sygnes he reigneth euen xxx. yeares, and right as there are twelue sygnes in the Zodyacke, so are there twelue monthes in the yeare, eache sygne to his month. Wherfore beware before, and make purueyaunce there∣fore, and looke when Saturne reig∣neth in the iii. winter sygnes, that is to say, Capricorne, Aquarie, and Pisces, and so long those vii. yeares and halfe a yeare, shalbe scarsenes and dearth of corne, fruite, Beastes, and all other thinges, for in the .iii. yeares signes he hath might and most power to fulfyll his malice if he be not letted by neigh∣bourhood of any good planet.
