PROGNOSTICATIONS, ETC. 77 28. The child born on the twenty-eighth day will be the delight of his parents, but will not live to any great age. 29. Children born on the twenty-ninth day will experience many hardships, though in the end they may turn out happily. It is good to marry on this day; and business begun on this day, will be prosperous. 30. The child that is born on the thirtieth day, will be fortunate and happy, and well skilled in arts and sciences. CONCERNING CHILDREN BORN ANY DAY OF THE WEEK. Sunday—The child shall be of long life, and obtain riches. Monday—Weak, and of an effeminate temper, which seldom brings a man to honor. Tuesday—Worse : though he may, with extraordinary vigilance, conquer the inordinate desires to which he will be subject, still he will be in danger of dying by violence, if he has not great procreation. Wednesday—He shall be given to the study of learning, and shall profit thereby. Thursday— He shall arrive to great honor and dignity. Friday—He shall be of a strong constitution, yet perhaps remarkably lecherous. Saturday—Is another bad day, but notwithstanding, the child may come to good, though it be seldom ; but most children born on this day, are of a heavy, dull, and very dogged disposition. LUCKY AND UNLUCKY DAYS FOR THOSE WHO FALL SICK. Whoever, iu the first day of any month, falleth sick, or in any infirmity, the third day ensuing is to be feared, which, if he pass, he shall certainly escape. Those falling ill on the second day of any month, though they be long confined, yet shall they recover. Any illness commencing on the third day, shall certainly terminate favorably. Those falling sick on the fourth day, will probably linger until the twenty-eighth, which, if they pass, may possibly recover. Those taken ill on the fifth day, may become very low, but will recover. • Persons falling sick on the sixth day, may recover, if they pass the fifth day of the ensuing month, but they will stand a poor chance of recovery.
