If you defire co know whether an intended marriage (tall take efTecl, or nor, look to the Afcendent and his Lord, and the Moortf for the Querent ; and the feventh Houfe, and his Lord, for the woman. And if the Lord of the Afcendent or the Moe»bc joyned to the Lord of the feventh,or be in the feventh, the marriage will be effe&ed ; or if the Lord of the feventh be in the firft, or with the Lord of the firft, it will cafily be brought to pafs j and the woman is more defirous thereof, then the man.
