Cancer in the 10th. signifies he will be oc∣pucied in some famous actions, his old age will be honorable pentifull, rich and hap∣py, having a good estate, but few Chil∣dren. But if ♃, behold this place by any aspect, he will have a happy off-spring.

Aries in the 7th. house, signifies pro∣fit to the Native by the water or watry pla∣ces; he will be fearefull, he will be in dan∣ger of his life in some desert place, sub∣ject

The 4th. house in ♑, the natives estate shall be subject to mutability; somtimes losing and againe getting what he lost, but he shall get all his estate by his own proper industry, and the latter part of his estate shall be very happy.
