Soldat Barbare le grand Roy frapera,

Injustement non esloigné de mort,

L’Avare Mere du fait cause sera,

Conjurateur & Regne en grand remort.

A Barbarous Souldier shall strike the King,

Unjustly, not far from death,

The covetous Mother shall be the cause of it,

The Conspirator and Kingdom in great remorse.

These words are so plain that they need no interpretation.
