| Cagliostro went to Poland. There he amazed everyone with a
startling prophesy in the court. Incidentally, this prophesy came to be
correct when he was living at Warsaw. Emperor Stanislas Augustus was greatly
interested in prophesies and occult sciences. He started pampering Cagliostro.
A lady member of the royal family did not like the importance being given
to Cagliostro. She once said that Cagliostro knows so much about future,
he should tell her as to what was in store for her during that month. Cagliostro
prophesied, “You shall go on a journey this month. Your carriage will
be involved in a minor accident. While waiting for some alternate arrangement,
spectators will cause you injury by pelting apples at you. You will go to
a pond to clean your clothes and wash yourself. There you will meet a person.
In spite of all sorts of initial obstacles, you will be able to get married
to him.” |
