by Nostradamus

LXIV.

French.

Seicher de faim, de soif, gent Genevoise,

Espoir prochain viendra au defaillir,

Sur point tremblant sera Loy Gebenoise,

Classe au grand Port ne se peut accueillir.

English.

Those of Geneva shall be dried up with hunger and thirst,

A near hope shall come when they shall be fainting,

The Gebenna Law shall be upon a quaking point,

The Navy shall not be capable to come into the Port.

ANNOT.

Here you must observe that Gebenna in Latine signifieth Geneva, and therefore this whole Stanza is concerning the City of Geneva.
