The Cobler's Prophecy is a play written by Robert Wilson in 1594. The story follows the life of a cobbler, who is also a prophet. He foresees the downfall of England and warns the people, but his predictions are ignored. The play is set in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I and deals with themes of political corruption, social inequality, and the abuse of power. The cobbler's prophecy is seen as a warning to the ruling class to change their ways before it is too late. The play is written in blank verse and features a mix of comedy and tragedy. It is considered one of the earliest examples of political drama in English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
