French.

De vaine emprise l’honneur indue plainte,

Galliots errants par Latins froid, faim vagues,

Non loin du Tybre de sang la Terre teinte,

Et sur humains seront diverses plagues.

English.

Honour bringeth a complaint against a vain undertaking,

Galleys shall wander through the Latin Seas, cold, hunger, Waves,

Not far from Tyber the Earth shall be died with blood,

And upon Mankind shall be several plagues.

ANNOT.

Tyber is the River of Rome, the rest are several prodigies that shall come to pass.
