Now here we finde 7rifiitia and his Idea and Ruler, which exaftly defcribes the Qnerents husband. And the two fignificators being in A Afpeft to each other ; we Judge the Marriage will be effeLted, 6"^ If the firft or feventh be in :*6 to each other in their Motion, the Que- rent no queflion will marry.
Ifallthe fignificators be ill Figures, a'ldof ill gover- nors in D or cP to each other, you may conclude the party enquiring is averfe to Marriage, and in plain terms he or (he will not marry.

If the ^erent Marry , honf long frfi ?
Finding the fignificators applying by a friendly Afpeft each to other, confider if in the Oriental or Meri- dional parts of the Earth > you may judge the Querent will be married fuddenly : if their motion be Occidental or Septentrional ; it will be much prolongedjand a great while before accomplifhed.
If the Figures and their Idea's and Rulers be in move* able places,and bealfo moveable : They do very much accelerate or haften the matter. In this judgement moveable Figures that are governed by moveable Idea's give weeks and days 5 common give months or weeks ; fixed Figures give years or month?. Et fie de c^ferir, >

ShaU the Querent marry more then o?ice ?
I Fthe fignihcators of Marriage be double- bodied, they declare the Qiierent (be it either man or woman) to marry more then once.
Jf the iignificators be in :;Jf or /[^ with good Fi- gures, it portends marriage to the Querent n:ore then once, chiefly from the fifth, feventh or eighth HouCcs.
But if you finde the fignificators of marriage in fixed places, and fixed, and in Afpeft with not above one Fi- gure ; you may tell the Qiierent ( let it be either he or (he) that it prefages marriage nd more then once.

TFhat manner of perfon Jhall the Querent marry ? And hovp qualified ?

If the firft be in company or Afpeft with Tuella^ fay the perfon is pleafant, affable. If with 5 fon is noble, of a great fpirit, and imperious. If with Barzdhel^ the perfon is many times rafli and furious, md fubjea to choler and paflion. If with Zazel^ the perfon is inclinable to melancholy, yet prudent and gravely wife. If with Hifmael, you may fay the perfon is juft, honeft and religious. If with 7aphtharthar the perfon is fubvlc and cunning, &c, Mix your judge- ment

mix your judgement with the quality of your fignificators, and their Nature is known the bet- ter.

Shall they accord after Marriage ?
'T'He firft Figure, his Id?a and Ruler in company •)(■ or A of the Figure that is in the feventh, or Ke- dcmely argues much pleafure and delight after Mar- riage, and (hews they (hall agre€ well, and not quarrel at all. »'
But if they fhall be in D or cf each unto the other, it. ^ fhews much quarrelling and contention to happen af- ter marriage ; And if they (hall be in D or cP of the in- fortunes, chiefly in all places of the Figure, the fame.
The Figures of Zaze!^ Barzahel or Cauda ^raconis in the Afcendent or firft Houfe, (hews the Querent to be imperious .''after marriage, and by his or herobftina- cy will occaiion much discontent and trouble : But if they, or either of them be in the feventh Houfe, the perfon whom the Querent marries will be the occa- iion of the trouble and difcontenr. Any of the Figures of benevolent Rulers poirelUng the feventh Houfe, the perfon, and a friendly reception of the feventh and firft^ notes a good agreement after mar" riagc.

THe firft and feventh Houfes being friends according to Nature j and if good Figures accidentally by motion be projefted in the firft and (eventh ; which a- gree as well with the Houfes and their Rulers, Idea's and Figures, as accidentally by projection, declare that the Partners (hall agree in their Partnerftiip, and gain well by their undertaking the fame.
If they (hall- be enemies by accident, they are friends naturally. And in this cafe, if the firft be a better Fi- gure then the feventh, and better dignified by motion, company and afpeft 5 it fignifieth the Querent to thrive

TF the Afcendent or firft Houfe be of better Figures
then the feventh, or in better company of alpeft ; there is great hopes the Qjierent will overcome in the fuit ofLavVj iHid worll his adverfary.
If a i'igure in the feventh be more powerful in digni- ties then the Alcendentor firft Figure, theAdverlary will overcome.

III. . Shall a ferj(m return fafe from the IFars .^
IF the firftbe a good Figure ftrong and potent, free frona the ill company and afpefts of the infor- tunes, it is an argument of great fecurity to the Querent , and that he (hall return fafe from the Wars.
If the firft Figure in motion fall cadent in the Earth, or beafiiifted by ill Figures 5 advife the Qiierent to ftay his March, and give his Commilfion up to his Ge- neral.
