by Nostradamus

LVIII.

French.

Sans pied ne main, dent aigue, & forte.

Par Globe au fort de Port & laisne nay,

Pres du portail, desloial le transporte,

Seline luit, petit grand emmené.

English.

Without foot or hand, sharp and strong tooth,

By a Globe, in the middle of the Port, and the first born,

Near the Gate shall be transported by a Traitor,

Seline shineth, the little great one carried away.

ANNOT.

The sense of the whole is this, that an Infant begot by some person of quality shall be exposed in the night time, the Moon Shining, which he calleth Seline, from the Greek word σεληνη, which signifieth the Moon.
