The predictions in his almanac (Merlinus liberatus) were intended to prevent the people of England from being further imposed on by vulgar almanac makers, and to expose the impostor astrologists who claimed knowledge they did not possess. 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.

That the particular interests of the Court and Country, of Prerogative and Privilege, of the King and People, may be and at this time are actually the same. II. That whatever names may have been formerly coined to distinguish parties here in England, there is at present neither Whig nor Tory, Williamite nor Jacobite, nor any real distinction but between those who are in a French, and those that are in an English interest. III. That the most inveterate enemies to civil liberty, are those who would now act the part of Commonwealthmen; and that the real promoters of a Popish Hierarchy and Spiritual Tyranny, are such as contend for the right of Presbyters against the Episcopal and Metropolitical Authority in the Church. IV. That the favor and indulgence of the present Government towards the Protestant Dissenters (so much envied by a certain party of anti-protestant churchmen) is so far from being disadvantageous to the established Church of England, that it is the surest and only way of regaining all the Dissenters to the National Communion. V. That the spirit of those, who, in the present circumstances of the Nation and Europe, would declare for Peace and against a War, is in reality a Spirit of Sedition, intestin [sic] War, private Revenge and Cruelty; and tends directly to such a War, as must end in the Conquest of these Nations, and in the establishment of a French government in England by the Administration of the pretended Prince of Wales, as it is already in Spain by that of the Duke of Anjou. VI. That France and Spain are as much united at present under two Kings, as ever they can be under one. VII. That whatever may be alleged about the Emperor’s immediate interest to restore his Family, and placing his Son the Arch-Duke on the throne of Spain, which belongs to him of Right; yet it is not true that the Emperor is Principal and we Seconds in this Cause, for England and Holland are and must be Principals in the War as well as He. VIII. That it is not only safer, but easier to fight for all Spain, than a Part; and for the entire Restoration of the House of Austria [Habsburgs], than for what may be called Satisfaction to the Emperor by some new and more fatal Partition Treaty. IX. That it is no Way advantageous, but rather must be fatal to England and Holland, and their united Interests, to attempt the Conquest of the Mines in the Spanish West Indies; and that the possession of Gold or Silver Mines must not only be peculiarly destructive of our English Constitution, but is also necessarily ruinous to the Industry, Manufacture, Trade, Agriculture, Manners, Strength, and Riches, of any People, and this in less Time than one Generation. X. That it is not injurious to the Interest of England, to have a Prince on the Throne who is not a Native of this Realm; and that there could not be greater Advantages expected from any Succession, than this in prospect of the Protestant Family of Hanover. XI. That in this ensuing War for our own Liberty and that of the World, whatever is given in Taxes, is not given to the King, nor any Thing given away from our Selves.

Translated from Dutch, printed in the year 1688. Reasons given are that James II had undermined the rule of laws in England, that the counsellors of James II were corrupt and providing him with bad advice and had encouraged him to overturn religious laws and subject the citizens of England to arbitrary governing. William's chief complaints were that James had agreed to uphold religious toleration of Protestants and the Church of England, but James was a Catholic and replaced many Protestant civil servants with Catholics who had not been required to take the oath mandated by the Test Act.
