,Every now and then, for. these
400 years and more, some one has ,
brought to . , light the \ prophecy and
memory of 'Mother Shipton. As
event follows event in mechanical
progress, her doggrel versen fall in..
so pat that they rutuitneeds be quote
ed. One of the predictions thereat
" Fire and water - shall , wonders do" .
—has came: to pass time end again,'
and the Mutest /fulfilment is in the
Kealy motor. This. Mother Shipton
was, one that would have taken high'
rank sus medium in our day; in
heris, the, fifteenth century, she was
said to ..haile teen begotten, like the
wizard Merlin; of the phantasm
Apollo, or some aerial demini under
that guise; and a beautiful orphan
'Yorkshire girl, named Agatha. She
had the.weird; lonely girlhood that
the child , of same his apt to have,
avoided , or persecuted by these Who
should have .be,in her ro.tes; she was
christened'Ursula - by the Abbott of,
Beverley, and 'grew up. so eccentric
and unnaturally shrewd that by and
by this tradition, - in those supersti
tious days, grew shoat her birth. She '
prophesied' as she grew older. and
even "persons of finality " consulted
her. She told the great Wolsey , that
he should never' come to York, and,
indeed, when within eight milesaf it
he was arrested by Northumberland.
at Bing Henry's order and brought
to Leicester, • wherry he died. Also,
she is said to have foretold the great
'fire of London, :the execution of
Charles ,I. and" many other. notable -
eVetste 'besides, of the reformation
and . the reigns_of Elizabeth" and
James. At the age of -seventy-three
she' foretold .her death, and at the
tour she - predicted she qiied. Her
name isn popular, tradition in York'
shire even taday, and the tradition
is:founded in part upon fact. Her
fa;oous prophesy was said to have
been published in her, lifetime • and
again 200 years "'a go; it was certainly- .
published forty. years ago,for we -
have seen.it in- a book of t hat time,
where it Ws.s ,said 'to be copied from
an. 'older beak. Though most of the
iteres are vague enough some show a
marked ; coincidence with remarkable
events such as the invention of steam,
railway locomotives and tunnels, the
telegraph, iron3dads, and the admis. -
