1A true Diſcription of the wonderfull and wholeſome Wells at Hornehauſen in Germanie in the Biſhopricke of Halberſtadt. Collected out of ſeverall Letters from Hornehauſen, Stettin, Hanburg, Bremen and other adjacent parts.Of the 12. of Iuly and 18. of Auguſt. 1646.
THe village wherein theſe wonderfull and wholeſome Wells are, is called Hornhauſen half a mile diſtant from Aſhersleben and two miles from the City of Halberſtadt, ſtanding in a bottome or valley, betweene two little Hills, one towards the Eaſt, and the other towards the Weſt, conſiſting at this preſent not of above fifty Boores or tenants, whereas in former times there were at leaſt a hundred and fifty of them.
The Miniſters name is Friderick Seligman; who was borne at Brunſwigg. There are now ſix Wells in the2 ſaid Village, whereof but three are uſed. The firſt as being the head ſpring on the fifth day of March. 1646. and was diſcovered by a youth comming from ſchoole who accidentally fell into it with one of his legs. He that firſt of all dranke of it was one, that had beene troubled with an Ague for a long time, and in a very ſhort time after he had drunke of it, he recovered. The ſecond ſpring on Midſummerday the 24. of Iune. And the third and fourth few dayes after. The fifth and ſixth on the even of our Ladyes Viſitation, but eſpecially the ſixth, during the time of publicke devotion. The firſt is as large, as a round table the ſecond and third halfe as large but they yeeld all three ſuch a quantitie and aboundance of water, that it is a wonderfull ſight to all that have bin there. There is a diſtance of forty paces or thereabouts betweene each of theſe Wells. Concerning their vertues, effects and operations, it is certaine, that they are moſt miraculous, and anſwerable to the reportes that have bin noiſed both within the Empire, and diſperſed beyond Seas, It is moſt true, that one Girle of Mansfeld, which was dumbe and deafe from her youth did recover, ſo that ſhe was beard of many, when ſhe ſaid after with good ſenſe and underſtanding this paſſage of the Scripture, The Blood of Ieſus Chriſt doth cleanſe us from all our ſins. Likewiſe a certaine Man, who was blind, and uſed to begge before the Gates at Leipzig, hath beene ſeene of ſome within few dayes, teſtiying that he could ſee with one of his eyes all things, and full as well as any Man that is ſharpeſighted. In ſumm, ſuch wonderfull Cures happen every day, As the weekely thankſgivings after the Sermon, doe give a ſufficient teſtimony of them.
3Not long agoe, as wee are certainly informed, there hath been publick thanks-giving for the recovery of a hundred and twenty ſeven perſons at once, whereof there were thirty ſeven that had the Falling ſickneſſe. And a woman with a crooked back, which ſhee had twenty yeares. And laſt moneth there was another publick thankes-giving ſaid for foureſcore perſons, which were all cured of very ſtrange Diſeaſes and Infirmities.
Beſides, the three principall Wells are not of one taſte, notwithſtanding they are of one colour; The firſt is counted for the ſweeteſt, and for this reaſon, it cannot be tranſported farre over land; The other is very ſalt, having ſixe or eight Springs, with a ſandy ground, not above a yard diſtant from a brooke; The third is of a middle taſte between the firſt and ſecond. The water of the ſecond is eſpecially good, and excellent for any outward hurts and ſores. There are many that have been reſtored to their former ſight (as the publick thanksgivings for them doth teſtifie) which had loſt their ſights quite by the ſmall pox; And we received but juſt now Letters from the Schoolemaſter there that informe us that already ſix hundred ſicke bodies, of ſeverall diſeaſes, were recovered by drinking of the ſaid Wells for the ſpace of eight or nine dayes. Certainly thoſe that have been there preſent relate, that Gods wonderfull workes, might, power, mercy and goodneſſe is evidently to be ſeene there, in theſe infirme and diſeaſed Creatures, which by the drinking of this precious Water, were made whole, eſpecially that were afflicted with theſe ſickneſſes following. As with the Gout, Feavers, Agues, Deafneſſe, French pox, Crook-backs,4 Wormes, Blindneſſe, Dumbneſſe, Cholicke, Swollen legges, lameneſſe in ſhoulders, hands and feet ▪ Scurffed and ſcabby heads, all ſorts of old feſtered hurts, Biles and ſores, Plureſie, ſore eyes, Dropſie, diſ-joynted limmes, and ſtrained Sinewes and veines, ill ſtomacke, Palpitation or beating of the heart, Apoplexi, Palſie, bitings of Dogs, broken armes or legs, Shooting in the head and eares, Short and dim ſight, Tooth-ach, Convulſions, Bruiſes and falls, Fiſtulaes & running ſores, Melancholick thoughts, Leproſie, defects in the Liver and Lights; Coughs, Headach, bloody Flux or iſſue, Ruptures, Wennes, Carnoſities, Impoſtumes in the Kidneys, Cancers, Guidineſſe, with many other Diſeaſes and infirmities, which would bee too long to ſpecifie.
Moreover, there are at this preſent above five thouſand perſons come there, of all ſorts, ranke and condition from all parts of Germanie, as Nuenberg, Auſpurg, Munchen, Hanburg, Bremen, Stetin, &c. with a world of Coaches and Wagons; ſo that Travellers ſometimes find difficultie to be furniſhed with Horſes. His Highneſſe the Prince Elector of Brandenburg, with his Mother and Aunt, Her Majeſty the Queene of Sweden, are gone thither; And wee are informed that Generall Torſtenſon, (who by reaſon of his indiſpoſition in his body, was conſtrained to reſigne his Command to Wrangel) went thither in a Litter, and came away on horſe-back fully recovered.
Beſides, we are of late informed, that by Gods infinite power and mercy thoſe three principall Wells are multiplied and diſperſed into fifteene all at a diſtance of fourty paces one from another. They write alſo, that5 the Phyſitians have diſtilled the ſame Water, and found pure gold thereby. It is to be feared, that if men ſhould not be ſatisfied with the grace and mercy of God, that God ſhall withdraw his bleſſing, and turne it into a judgement. And for the obtaining of Gods bleſſing, at ſet houres in the morning, at eight of the clocke, and in the evening at 3, prayers are duly and conſtantly performed in the preſence of ſo many thouſand perſons who altogether fall downe upon their knees, praying with the Miniſter after this manner following.
The Prayer which is uſually ſaid at the Fountaine of Hornhauſen.
ALmighty God, mercifull Father, wee thy weake, diſeaſed, infirme and miſerable children doe appeare here with ſad, afflicted, and diſtreſſed countenances before thy moſt holy throne of Grace, bowing the knees of our hearts, acknowledging and lamenting our manifold enormous ſinnes and tranſgreſſions, wherewith we have ſinned againſt thee, O moſt righteous God, provoked thy wrath, which is like the burning and conſuming fire, and drawne upon our ſelves, all ſorts of judgements and plagues; ſo that thou haſt not onely viſited us with the Sword Perſecution, Dearth and other puniſhments, but alſo haſt chaſtened ▪ handled and afflicted our bodyes with ſeverall Diſeaſes, Sores and Infirmities, and thereby haſt fulfilled, wherewith thou haſt threatned us in thy Word long agoe; that whoſoever ſinneth againſt his Creatour, ſhall fall into the hands of the Phyſitian. Now, Lord, mee muſt confeſſe, that wee have not onely juſtly deſerved all theſe, but yet farre greater and heavier judgements; yea withall that thou alſo in the middeſt of thy wrath and indignation doſt ſhew mercy, for if thou wouldeſt have dealt with us after our deſerts, thou mighteſt have totally conſumed and deſtroyed us in our ſins, without giving us any reſpight for our repentance; whereas thou haſt bin pleaſed not onely to prolong our dayes, that we might repent of our ſinful & wicked courſe of life, but alſo as a loving Father, to chaſtiſe and humble us with thy Fatherly rod of diſeaſes and infirmities, like as a temporall Father doth chaſtiſe his ſonnes, that thereby7 wee might be induced and ſeaed up to repentance: For our great calamitie and miſery doth compell us to draw nigh unto thee; Wherefore we come and call upon thee, O Lord, in our diſtreſſes, and in our offlictions wee lift up our voyce, and powre out our ſupplications before thee: Pardon us, O Lord, pardon us our ſinnes; Have mercy upon us, and blot out all our tranſgreſſions; and forgive our ſecret ſinnes for the love of thy Deare Sonne Jeſus Chriſt. And becauſe our weakneſſes and infirmities are not hidden before thy eyes; yea, thy beloved Sonne, our Lord and Saviour hath aſſumed upon himſelfe, and borne our weakneſſes and infirmities, to the end that hee might ſhew mercy and helpe to thoſe that were afflicted; Wee beſeech Thee therefore, O mercifull Father, have mercy and compaſſion on our miſery. Take to heart our manifold afflictions, infirmities and diſeaſes. O Lord Jeſus Chriſt, true God; that knoweſt our diſtreſſe and miſerie; eaſe us of our heavy burthen, which thou haſt borne thy ſelfe And whereas thou as being the true Phyſician of ſoules, removeſt and cureſt not onely the ſickneſſe of ſoules, fo•giveeſt ſinnes, and cleanſeſt and waſheſt our filth and pollution in the wholſome Fountaine of the blood and grace of Ieſus Chriſt, but alſo thou onely canſt heale the infirmities of our bodyes, to which effect thou haſt infuſed thy wonderfull vertues, and heavenly oparations into the Elements, Minerals, Herbes, Flowers, and other Plants, wherewith thou removeſt all ſorts of ſickneſſes, as thou haſt healed by the meanes of a lump of figgs, the venemous and mortall boyle of King Hezekiah; Wee therefore beſeech Thee, O heavenly Father, to magnifie thy mercy alſo in us; by granting us thy grace, that according to thy Fatherly and good pleaſure, ſince thou knoweſt alone what is for our beſt, this wholſome Fountaine, which thou haſt opened and diſcovered unto us poore and unworthy ſinners, out of thy meere grace, may powre unto us a powerfull and gracious helpe and remedy for the recovery of our health. Lord, thou art Hee, that haſt life and death, health and ſickneſſe in thy hands, that killeſt, and makeſt alive againe, and bringeſt men alone to the grave and deſtruction, and ſayeſt remaine the children of men; Wherefore it is nothing to thee to helpe us here thy unworthy creatures. And as thou prolongd'ſt the life of King Hezekiah, even when hee was at deaths doore. As thou reſtoredſt the ſight to him that was borne8 blind with clay made of ſpittle, and ſendeſt him to waſh himſelfe in the Poole of Siloam; As thou healedst Peters Mother in law lying ſick of a Feaver by touching onely her hand: As thou helpedſt the Woman that was troubled with the bloudy iſſue, by touching the Seame of thy garment: Yea, as thou haſt miraculouſly reſtored health and ſtrength to many others: So it may pleaſe thee, to ſanctifie and bleſſe by thy infinite bounty and mercifulneſſe the vſe of this Water unto us, that if it be thy holy will our Infirmities and diſeaſes may thereby be healed and removed. As the water of Jordan ſerved for the healing of Naamans Leproſie, and conduced to the recovery of his health; So be pleaſed, O good Lord to grant the ſame wholſome vertue and power to this Water. Many ſuch, blind, lame, and other infirme bodies were gathered together at the Poole of Betheſda, which waited on till the water was moved by the Angell, that then they might deſcend into it and bee healed. O Lord, looke likewiſe in thy mercy upon this infirme and weake multitude of people, waiting for thy helpe and bleſſing. O that it may pleaſe thee, to move alſo this water through thy Divine power, that it may likewiſe have the ſame vertue and operation with us, to the reſtoring of our health. Thou commandeſt us, Lord in thy Word, that if any man be ſicke or infirme, hee ſhall call upon thee, and then thou wilt heare him, according to his faith, and give thy bleſſing to the meanes and remedies he ſhall apply. Now, behold, O Lord, wee are here proſtrate in thy fight, with our faithfull prayers and ſupplications, not relying upon our righteouſneſſe, and holineſſe but truſting to thy great mercy, that thou wilt heare us, according to thy promiſe: Yea Lord, thou doſt teſtifie thy ſelfe, that hee that aske•h, ſhall receive; he that ſeeketh ſhall find; and to him that knocketh ſhall be opened: Wherefore wee beſeech thee, for our health, grant us the ſame by thy grace: Wee ſeeke thee, as our Phyſitian, be gratious and propitious unto us; Wee knocke with our unanimous prayer, and fervent ſupplications, at the doore of thy heavenly throne, till they penetrate through the cloudes. O Lord, open thy doore of grace, and heare us from Heaven, whether we lift up our eyes and hands. Let our faces not be confounded, for if thou ſhouldſt reject us, who would receive us? if thou ſhouldeſt abandon and forſake us, who would helpe us? Yet, if thou haſt decreed in thy eternall9 and unchangeable decree and will, that theſe infirmities and weakneſſes ſhall lie longer upon us; Thy will be done, O Lord, and give us patience, that wee may not murmur againſt it, nor envy others, that are healed, but ſubmit our ſelves with all obedience to thy good pleaſure, and having our confidence and truſt put in thy mercy and grace, may ſay with Job; O Lord, although thou ſhouldeſt kill us, yet wee will put our truſt in thee; Wee are ſure thou wilt not lay a heavyer burthen upon our ſhoulders, then wee ſhall be able to beare, but that thou wilt aſſiſt and relieve us in the middeſt of our calamities with thy holy and bleſſed Spirit, which may comfort us in our afflictions, refreſh us in adverſities, remove our paines and torments, and deliver us out of all diſtreſſe and miſerie. Moreover, O moſt mercifull Father, ſince thou haſt been pleaſed to ſhew thy ſelfe thus glorious and wonderfull through thy infinite goodneſſe and grace in this place towards us unworthy and miſerable ſinners, by giving and diſcovering unto us ſuch a precious and powerfull remedy for the recovery of our health, whereby already great wonders have beene wrought, ſo that wee are not able to expreſſe our thankefulneſſe unto thee in all eternitie. Wee beſeech thee therefore from the bottome of our hearts, that thou wouldeſt not withdraw from us theſe heavenly gifts and bleſſings, if we ſhould not thankefully acknowledge them, from which in mercy thou wilt be pleaſed to preſerve us, but vouchſafe that this Fountaine of grace may flow and guſh out more and more, without drying up or diminiſhing. O Lord grant this Fountaine may yeeld water in abundance, with a conſtant and durable vertue, that thereby our miſerable and weake bodies may receive comfort and helpe, and thy name be exalted and magnified throughout all Nations. Wee beſeech thee, O Almighty God and Father, to heare this our prayer, through Ieſus Chriſt thy Deare Sonne, to whom with thee and the holy Ghoſt, be aſcribed all honour and glory, for ever and ever, Amen.
