This ebook was transcribed by Les Bowler
"Prophecies of Robert Nixon, Mother Shipton, and Martha, the Gypsy" by Anonymous is a historical collection centered around prophecies from notable figures like Robert Nixon and Mother Shipton, likely written during the late 17th century or early 18th century. The book delves into the lives and predictions of these famous prophets, emphasizing their foreknowledge of significant historical events and societal changes. Through its accounts, readers are invited to explore the intersections of folklore, history, and the supernatural, drawing connections to prophecies that are rumored to have come true. At the start of the work, the narrator discusses Robert Nixon, known as the Cheshire Prophet, describing tales circulated among locals about his remarkable prophecies, some of which involve significant political events in England. Nixon's predictions include outcomes of battles and the fates of individuals, presented with a sense of authenticity and reverence that captivates the local populace. The text sets a tone of curiosity and intrigue, as it hints at Nixon's odd characteristics and his prophetic abilities, illustrating how he was both ridiculed and revered by those around him. The opening portion raises questions about the nature of prophecy and belief, laying the groundwork for the collection's exploration of other prophetic figures like Mother Shipton and Martha the Gypsy.
