Indeed, but that I am afraid of being suspected of too much Learning, or that I would invalidate the Testimonies of this Author, I should be bold to say, that no Part of the _Brute_ Creation have the Benefit of _Second Sight_: and that they have neither Organs, nor Reason, to discern, or distinguish Phantoms, from material Bodies: and therefore the old _Rabins_ very subtly conjectured, that the _Ass_, which carried _Balaam_, was not a real Ass, but the _Devil in Disguise_, and subject to the _Magical_ Power of the _Prophet_. * * * * * Printed for W. BOREHAM, at the _Angel_ in _Pater-Noster-Row_, where Advertisements and Letters from Correspondents are taken in. Numb. XXV THE THEATRE. By Sir _JOHN FALSTAFFE_. _To be Continued every_ Tuesday _and_ Saturday. Price Two-pence. _When the Married shall marry, Then the Jealous will be sorry; And tho' Fools will be talking, To keep their Tongues walking, No Man runs well, I find, But with's Elbows behind._ Nostrad. _in_ Quev. Tuesday, _May 10. 1720._ Upon the Perusal of my Motto, I believe my Readers will be puzzled to comprehend what it is I aim at: It seems to be a perfect Riddle, and if you read it backward like a _Witches_ Prayer, it will be as easily understood. Yet let no Man condemn it for that trifling Objection, that he does not understand it: for, I can assure the World, that it is an old _Prophecy_, which comprehends many Secrets of Destiny, Stars, and Fate. Tho' the Vulgar, whose Eyes are shut against these Mysteries, may endeavour to explode all _Divination_; yet when the Prophecy comes to be fulfilled, they will confess their own Ignorance, and give an implicit Belief to such _Revelations_, as are delivered to the Publick by those wise Men, who by their Art pry into the Cabinet of Futurity, and make to themselves _Spectacles_ of the _Planets_, by which they are enabled to read the darkest Page in the Book of _Doomesday_.
