Pranostyka — Paracelsus Czech Prognostication (PH306)
No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
Extensive searches across major scholarly catalogs (UNESCO, LOC, OpenAlex, Google Books, Internet Archive) yielded no evidence of an English translation for this specific 1540 Czech-language prognostic work by Paracelsus. While general collections of Paracelsus's prophecies exist, they do not contain this specific vernacular text. Therefore, this appears to be the first English translation.

Paracelsus confronts King Ferdinand I with a brutal, prophetic indictment of his moral failure and political arrogance. This text maps the inevitable collapse of those who prize their own pride over divine order.
