 tyo Gerard Cremonenfis,

which is in the (hong Houfe do noc fall, nor hath noc an evil Pianec with him ; and if he which is weak be noc in his own Houfe, nor in his exaltation, nor with a good Planer , he whofe Plane: is in the ftrong Houfe, fhall overcome ; like- wife he whofe fignificator is in a mean Houfe, fhall have great fear and doubt in his heart, becaufe fometimeshe fhall hope to conquer, and otherwhiles fear to be overcome. And note, that in a Queftion concerning war and kingdomac is faid that there is more power and efficacie , or fortitude in the exal- tation of a Planer, then in his Houfe ; but in all other Quefli- ons the contrary.

If you would be informed concerning any one being that is gone to any fighr, whether he fhall return fafe, fee the Lord of the Afcendent j if he be good, that is , with good Planets, and a good Pianec in the firft:, he will return fafe; but iftheSwwbewith the Lord of thefirft,in any part of the Queftion, let him not go,becaufe the Sun burneth him. And if the Lord of the feventh be with a good Planet, and the Lord of the firft with a good Planet likewife, he fhall have fome impediment in the way ; but he will not die. And if an evil Pianec be with the Lord of the firft, and a good Planet in the firft, if he goeth he fhall fuffer great damage, but not death ; neverthelefs he may be grievoufly wounded. And l( Saturn be in the firft,or with the Lord of the firft, let him not goj becaufe fome impediment will happen unto him by fome man that he will meet. And if there be an e- vil Planet w ith the Lord of the firft, or Saturn be in the firft, or with the Lord of the firft, he will be wounded with wood or with a ftone. If Mars and the Dragons Tail be in the firft, or with the Lord of the firft ; or if there be evil Planets in the firft, or with the Lord of the firft, he will fuffer wounds or death. See likewife if there be an evil Planet in the eighth, becaufe then death is to be feared. And if the Sun be with the Lord of the feventh, or in the eighth , it fignifies that it is ill to go. The like judgement is of the feventh and the tenth.

And if aQueftionbe propofed concerning the event of

war
