The Sad and dismal year. Or, England's great and lamentable flood; : being a true, but woful relation, of the mighty rains, and overflowings of the stately rivers of Trent, Dove, and Severn, in several parts of the nation, and the number of men, women, and children, that perished by the force of this inundation. Likewise, the hideous noise and shrieks of poor scking babes and infants, that lay floting up and down the waters in their cradles, and the getting up of divers people to the tops of houses to save their lives. Together with the carying away of great store of hay, pease, and beans, by the merciless streams; and the great loss and ruine of many cowes, horses, sheep, and oxen.
