The Cobbler's Prophecy

T0
When Mercury chooses simple good Raph Cobler to deliver an important message to Mars, he bestows on him the gift of prophesy. Boeotia, which seems remarkably similar to 1590s London, is in a dreadful state, for its security has bred contempt, and Raph's truth-telling must unite all fragmented parts into a whole. 'Witte Wilson...without compare' has here written a magical morality play.
