Prophecy of 1762 Warns of British Decline and War
A poem from Warrington, June 22 1762, purports to relay a prophecy from 1747 about Britain’s future troubles. It foresees famine, pestilent pests, clergy decay, parricides, and edicts. The verse envisions European upheaval, British hosts slain abroad, and a night of Greenland cold for Albion.
