Allowing for the fact that the order of the words*, almost inevitably linear-sequential, is not necessarily the precise order of events, these words of the Brahan Seer spoken more than 300 years ago (the book says!) have proved exactly correct except for the final prediction, which has not yet happened. A couple of years ago, horrid black rains did indeed seem likely to refer to nuclear fallout or (possibly) oil; now the answer seems obvious: acid rain, which is having that effect (many scientists claim) already. If that is so, the effects could get worse but afterwards the people will return. This is also the future of [...]land in my mind, an 'inner mirror' of the land to which it is hinged; and somewhere I have quarter-inch maps of the Highlands obsessively covered (by me) with little circles which were the suggested sites for new Ward[-]Villages in a repopulated [Highland] Scotland.
