by Nostradamus

LXVI.

French.

Le Chef de Londres par Regne l’Americh,

L’Isle d’Escosse tempiera par gelée,

Roy, Reb. auront un si faux Antechrist,

Que les mettra tretous dans la meslée.

English.

The Chief of London by Reign of America,

The Island of Scotland shall catch thee by a frost,

King and Reb. shall have so false an Antichrist,

As will put them altogether by the ears.

ANNOT.

I conceive this Prophecy can be appropriated to no body better then Oli. Cromwel, who is called here the Chief of London by Reign of America, that is, by Reign of confusion, whose projects and treasons were all brought to nought, by the victorious Mars of the ever renowned General Monck, who came with his Army from Scotland to London in the Winter time, he is called also a false Antichrist, because he was an enemy to King and Reb. that is Respublica or Common-wealth.
