Prediction. III.

About the egining of August 1681 (sayes he) you may expect to hear happy tideings from the Northern parts, Peoples hearts will be revived: Tradeing will encrease, and many happy dayes be towards? good Laws the support both of Kingdoms, and Common-Wealths, may about this time be had in great regard, though contrary to the will of some: the cloud, that hover'd, shal be dis∣pelled, and many things, that lay as it were hid, may be revealed. the Celestial Configurations seem to smile upon these Isles, and all things concur to make us happy, Ma∣nufacture shal be cherished, and plenty in Abundance will as it were slow from all parts.

That this is meant of the Kingdome of Scotland, and the Affairs there as well as of England is not to be doubt∣ed, and how prosperous they have been I think few or none are Ignorant, though contrary to the expectations of the Factious and evil disposed persons, but such is the goodness of the Almighty, who, when he first created this round world drew order from disorder, and out of a rude and confused Chaos Composed of varying Elements framed the Glorious Archietecture of the Star-spangled Skyes, that he can make all things comply for our ad∣vantage if we will but serve him, &c.
