certain intoxicating Drug which immediately bereaves People of their Senses, and throws them into a profound Sleep, he gave some of it to the Messenger; and when he found him doz’d, he took away his Dispatches, and went and overtook the Princess, who, after travelling three Days and three Nights successively, without Rest, was got into the Dominions of the Holy See. Arriving at _Bologna_, she there found my Lord _Dunbar_, vested with a Proxy from the Pretender, then in _Spain_, to marry her; which Ceremony was accordingly perform’d there without much Pomp, and the Princess set out in a few Days for _Rome_. My Lady _Marr_, accompany’d by all the _English_ of both Sexes that were at ROME of the Pretender’s Party, went in that Prince’s Coaches to meet the Princess; and the Cardinals, the _Roman_ Princes, and all the Nobility likewise sent their Coaches. Thus did the Princess make her public Entry into ROME, where she was receiv’d with great Marks of Respect; and there she was, not long after, join’d by her Husband[5]. While I am speaking of the Pretender, I ought not to omit acquainting you of a certain Prophecy in every body’s Mouth here, which was said to be found among the Papers of the late Pope, importing, that in the Year 1734, the Pretender should be in the peaceable Possession of the Throne of _Great Britain_; but I would not give much Money for his Hopes[6]. Be this as it will, the Prophecy is as follows: Dum _Marcus cantabit Hallelujah, Et Antonius Veni Creator, Et Joannes Baptista cænabit, Tune regnabit et triumphabit Rex in Anglia Jacobus_ III. _i. e._ _When Easter falls on St. Mark’s Day, And Whitsunday on St. Antony’s of Padua, And when St. John the Baptist’s is a Sacrament Day, Then King James +III.+ shall reign and triumph in England._
