Frater (Brother) Balthassar Mas lived in the early 1600’s. He foretells of a time when England will be flooded by rising sea levels:

“I saw a land swallowed by the sea and covered with water, but afterwards I saw that little by little, the sea retreated and left the land visible, and the upper parts of the towers and the turrets of the cities rose and appeared more beautiful than before being swallowed by the sea, and it was told me that was England.”
