Cometomantia. A discourse of comets: shewing their original, substance, place, time, magnitude, motion, number, colour, figure, kinds, names, and, more especially, their prognosticks, significations and presages. Being a brief resolution of a seasonable query, viz. Whether the apparition of comets be the sign of approaching evil? Where also is inserted an essay of judiciary astrology, giving satisfaction to this grand question, whether any certain judgments and predictions concerning future events, can be made from the observation of the heavenly bodies? Both occasioned by the appearance of the late comets in England and other places.
