A Prophecy of Merlin Ambros fore-telling the raigning sinnes of this Island by means of the Bishops of Great Brittain: And that the Kingly Government shall fall upon the earth, lastly that the Bull shall bear the Imperial rule at Sea, who will be both just and invincible.
Yr Esgobion a lwybrant i ddrwg weirhredoedd, ag yna y gollyngir gwaed ar y ddayar, a yr halogir y Temlav, ag i bidd ffyrn grwydd gorthrwm, a fferhud sodom, yna i bydd treyswyr a dymon a gasaant gyfwwnder, ag a garaut y kam, a bradwyn Rhutaui a Amk••nrut o heddiw hid y foru i farnu rkam, ag i ado rwwn er kael da.

The Translation. The Bishops shall lead to wicked deeds; then will be ••ffusion of blood upon the earth, Temples will be vilified and contemned, cruel oppression shall raign, with the sins of Sodom, then will be wrongful doers and people which will hate righteousness, and Lovers of wrong; then the treach∣erous people of Rome will comb••ne and plot from day to day for lucre sake to maintain the wrong, and seize the right, and in these dayes people wil be Perjurers, wildy, and without Conscience, Lovers of rewards for strengthening of lyes and falshood, and then Justice and the righteousness of the Law will be delayed, then will be combustion and distraction upon the
