LXVIII.

French.

L’Armée de Mer devant Cité tiendra,

Puis partira sans faire longue allée,

Citoyens grande proye en Terre prendra,

Retourner classe reprendre grand emblée.

English.

The Fleet shall stand before the City,

Then shall go away for a little while,

And then shall take a great troop of Citizens on Land,

Fleet shall come back and recover a great deal.

ANNOT.

It seemeth here he speaketh of two Fleets, one of which shall stand a little while before a Town, and carry a great many Citizens away, but that the other Fleet shall come in the mean time, and redeem them.
