One is almost tempted to believe, with astrologists, that baleful stars sometimes preside with malign influence over the destinies of battles, as they are said to do over individuals and nations." — Sword and Pen: Ventures and Adventures of Willard Glazier, John Algernon Owens
"Whatever way it may happen, you will be knighted," the astrologist said gravely, "after a great battle, and by the hand of a sovereign; though by whom the battle will be fought and who the sovereign may be I cannot say, but methinks that it will be the English king." — At Agincourt, G. A. (George Alfred) Henty
