The compleat book of knowledge: treating of the wisdom of the antients and shewing the various and wonderful operations of the signs and planets, and other celestial constellations, on the bodies of men, women and children; and the mighty influences they have upon those that are born under them. Compiled by the learned Albubetes, Benesaphan, Erra Pater, and other of the antients. To which is added, the country man's kalendar; with his daily practice, and perpetual prognostication for weather, according to Albumazar, Ptolomy, and others. Together with a catalogue of all the market-towns, fairs, and roads in England and Wales. All those who peruse this book, must own, that it the knowledge gives of things unknown.

The Sun being in Pisces,

Denotes a Man to be quick, of a voluble and ready Tongue, bold and conceited; but fortunate in finding out hidden Trea∣sures; for this is peculiar to those who are born when the Sun is in Pisces, that they shall find something unlooked for, and shall be also enriched with other Mens Goods: It also shews them to be merry and jocose, of a good disposition, and loving the com∣pany of good Men: They seldom live long; but if they reach to thirty five Years, they may live to old Age. They shall never be very Rich, except in their own Opinions;

always full of troublesome thoughts; and are in danger of being brought into Cap∣tivity, by means of Women. They have commonly some mark either in the Elbow or Foot, and their fortune will come from the South. If the Native be a Woman, she will be hot, bold, of an insolent Tongue, contumelious, a notorious Scold; and some∣thing worse; for she will forsake her own Husband, and cleave to an Adulterer.

Thus I have given you an Account of the Influences of the Sun, being in any of the Coelestial Signs; by which any Person may know in what Sign the Sun was, at the time of his Birth.
