The Prophecies of GILD.

WHEN holy Kirk is wracked, and will has no wit. And pastors are plukt, and pield without pity. When idolatry is in Ems and Re, And spiritual pastors are vexed and away. And ail estates in sight are unknown, Because of their cloathing, cunning or craft, Spiritually suspended, subverted and suspected, Denying their duty to God, and their debt, Prompted up princes, as the Peacock proud, Resnsing their religion, and their right rule ; Then in the north a wicked wind shall blow, That all the realm shall rule right soon thereafter. The gray hound shall be grieved and driven at under And tramped for his truth to whom he kept trust, The kindest of his Kith shall not him know,
