Showing how to judge of the general accidents of the world by the falling of New
Years day
[Sunday]
You are herein to observe on what day of the week New Years day falls; for if
it falls on Sunday, a pleasant winter ensues and a natural and kindly summer
and sufficient fruit; the harvest will be indifferent for weather, yet some wind
and rain it will produce; a temperate spring and is seasonable. It also denotes
many marriages, plenty of wine and honey, the death of young men and cattle,
robberies in most places, new prelates and kings, and cruel wars towards the
end of the year, or at least much dissention and discord among men.
[Monday]
If it falls on a Monday, the winter will be somewhat uncomfortable; the
summer temperate; no great plenty of fruit, many fancies and fables dispersed
abroad, many fevers, the death of kings, nobles and great men, in most places
marriages and a downfall of the gentry.
[Tuesday]
If on Tuesday, there follows a stormy winter and a wet summer, a varied
harvest and moist spring; corn and fruit indifferent, yet garden herbs shall not
flourish, great sickness among men, women and young children, and a
mortality of cattle, many men shall die of the bloody flux, and everything save
corn shall be expensive.
[Wednesday]
On Wednesday, a warm winter in the beginning, but towards the end snow and
frost; a cloudy summer, plenty of fruit, also of corn, wine, hay, honey and other
things; damage and hard labour to women with child, death to many children,
plenty of sheep, news of kings, great wars and bloodshed towards the midst.
