Marches Predictions.

THe great Luminary of the world happens to be Eclipst this present Moneth on the 29. day which will be more visible in England then in Holland, and the effects greater, especially among the poorer sort, who are like to have their pock∣ets Eclipst many Moneths after. The Sun enters Aries, A fiery sign and doth predict chollerick mutations, yet hapily there may be a reconsilia∣tion, some of the learned have troubled them∣selves to branch out the severall effects that may arise from Eclipses, and yet have but like unto blind men, sometimes hit the mark; I hope to be more certaine in my predictions, for as the time now is, we may without error affirme that such as are invectively malitious against the Govern∣ment under which they live, will at last be found out and suffer an Eclips of those priviledges which otherwise they might have enjoyed under the same. The worst aspect this Eclips hath upon Holland is the troublsomnesse of the Seas, a mis∣chief not easily disgested, nor of unvalued con∣cernment to self ends. The wetnesse of the for∣mer season will produce a rot amongst sheep, and women will be generally inclined quickly to for∣get their Husbands if once they can bury them.
