Au fondement de nouvelle secte,

Seront les os du grand Romain trouvez,

Sepulchre en Marbre, apparoistra converte,

Terre trembler en Auril mal enfeüvez.

At the foundation of a new sect,

The Bones of the great Roman shall be found,

The Sepulchre shall appear covered with Marble,

The Earth shall quake in April, they shall be ill buried.

The meaning is, that when they shall go about to make a foundation of a house, for a new Sect of Friers; they shall find the bones of a famous Roman in a Marble Sepulchre, and that in April the Earth shall quake, whereby many shall be swallowed up.
