Forraign and domestick prophesies

Another Welch Prophesie of the same, ovt of a very ancient Manuscript, pointing out the Norman Conquest, and of their continuance till the coming in of King James, whose coming is layd out by an exact number of years, likewise of the miseries that shall follow.

The Traansltion

Woe and misery unto the English, for they shall be driven ••o fly and forsake Brittain, by force of the Norman Armies, and the _____ _____ Lyon with his Commanders Halters and Bri∣dels; then shall they sometimes fight, sometimes fly away, then will the Cross of Christ, meaning the Church, be ready to for∣sake Brittain, then shall Bethlehem and Jerusalem be punished then the right Christians, meaning the Brittains, shall be over∣come; then shall the Normans and the English fight by fits

and turns: woe then for oppression and the every, and for want of love, and for false and malicious designs in the land of Bru∣tus; Woe and revenge from God because they contend about another mans right, if the condition of the Saints and Beirdles be true: Woe, when Rome enters into every house, then shall be warrs: And when T. 76. years, and 300. and 3. nine Months comes; after the Conquest of a Bastard, meaning the Norman Duke, then the Race of the Normans in the Kingly Govern∣ment rooted out, and extinct, then shall the malice of both (meaning the Normans and the Saxons) equally meet: Woe then for the Armies that shall sometimes fight, sometimes give over, sometimes here, sometimes there.

Here are three remarkable passages layd out: First the Norman Conquest: Secondly, the coming in of King James in a prefixed time: Thirdly, the wars that shall follow: And now to the time; first you have the letter T. which by the ancient customary number of the Brittains stood for

		160
Being added to the tormer number of		378
	makes	538

Now this number of 538. with the 3 odd Months above, is the very distance within a few Moneths between the Con∣queror, and the coming in of King James.
