Du nom qui on ne fut au Roy Gaulois,

Jamais ne fut un Foudre si craintif,

Tremblant l’Italie, l’Espagne, & les Anglois,

De femmes estrangeres grandement attentif.

Of the name that a French King never was,

There was never a Lightning so much feared,

Italy shall tremble, Spain and the English,

He shall be much taken with women strangers.

ANNOT.

This foretelleth that when a French King shall have a name that never any of his Predecessors had, he shall be so much feared as that Italy, Spain, and England shall tremble, and that besides he shall be much given to women.
