Prophecy Verse: Mother Shipton Foretells Wonders Endings
A 15th century prophecy outlines machines without horses and swift thought, world upheavals, gold at the tree root, river travel without horses, underwater locomotion and living color signs. It predicts iron floating, unknown lands and wonders of fire and water. It claims England shall admit a few and foresees the end in 1881.
