A noteable Prophecy of Merlin Ambros, wherein is set out more signs and tokens before the appearance of the Brittish Conquerour, with pretty, knotty, small number of 7 in the cluse.

Pau fo lyffro ar y myudd kywarthog, y byddllawn r ynys o bobl Ang¦henawg, agenwir swyddawg a newin kerniog ai chael yn ddiog, a Chadarn yn Anrhigarog, ag wedi gly∣bwr gwynt gogleddog, a thlawd gwarth cudd¦og, a Ffubl newnog, a gwen¦wyn mwlawg a hudd yn llidiaug, ai wyr yn Arfawg, ag yn miwedd saith, Gwaith Anrhigarawg.

The Translation. When there is an uproar or tumult upon the rich Mountain, this Islnd then will be full of misrable peo∣ple, and dishonest Officers, starving for silver, and hardly, or few to be had: and the strong, merciless, and after a wet Northern wind, the poor in vile contempt, the people starv∣ing,

poyson dark, the Stag furious, his men armed, and in the end of seven, merciless work.

The Stag may be applyed either to the Earl of Essex, or to his Highness the Lord Protector; for that Ensign belongs to both, and bth of them were of the same side, and strong with forces and Armes.

But the question is about this number of 7, which carries a trebble Application.

First whether it alludes to the final destruction of the race of the seventh Henry, by the death of the late King.

Secondly, whether the said King was beheaded in the seventh year after the breach between him and his Parliament.

Thirdly, whether it may point out some odde number of years as 57, wherein merciless execution shall be made.

But my advice is, that the Royal party may take careful notice of his last Conjecture, and of my Advertisements to the Inha∣bitants in general, left they fall within the compass of this mer∣ciless work; they are fairly warned throughout these Prophe∣cies, but these Prophecies cannot be fully accomplished, till some unadvised heads suffer a little further yet.
