A Collection of Nativities by John Gadbury

1
Hi ... finally finished transcribing this into modern English, if anyone is interested, a copy is available from my page on archive.org.

The text contains delineations of 153 nativities in three parts labelled: Illustrious Nativities (mainly royals and aristocrats), Eminent Nativities (Popes, Cardinals, clergymen, doctors and lawyers), Select Nativities (astrologers, friends, twins, and anyone else who interested Gadbury).

There are 50 nativities in each section, many with Solar Returns and Primary Directions. Between Part 2 and 3 there three other nativities: Cromwell, his son, and an Italian rebel (Massianiello) who I've never heard of before; he managed to arouse the support of the citizens of Naples, install himself as king and, after inciting a murderous rampage, was murdered himself, ruling for only 8 days!

Thanks Satya7 and Greg; I'm beginning to feel quite silly responding to each poster, but don't want anyone to feel that their kind notice is unacknowledged so to soothe my embarrassment, and conscience, thank you to all future commenters, glad you have/may find my work useful in some manner.
