Proceeds to list people believed will die in a specific month and day, predicts an uprising in Dauphine due to the oppression of the people, a storm that will destroy many ships off the coast of France, and other sundry accidents, deaths, and births. “Isaac Bickerstaff” was the pseudonym for Jonathan Swifte; his predictions in this text were intended to “prevent the people of England from being further imposed on by vulgar almanac makers”, and to expose the imposter astrologists who claimed knowledge they did not possess. He then proceeds to list people he believes will die in a specific month and day, he predicts an uprising in Dauphine due to the oppression of the people, a storm that will destroy many ships off the coast of France, and other sundry accidents, deaths, and births.
