Poor Robin's prophecy, for the year 1701 : found several years after his death, hid under an old close-stool-pan: and now publish'd by his executors, to make some people merry, and the rest mad : containing, comical predictions for every month in the year, carefully calculated, to make both sexes shake their sides till they break their twatling-strings.
