LXXIX.

French.

Qui par fer pere perdra, nay de Nonnaire,

De Gorgon sur la fin sera sang perferant,

En Terre estrange fera si tout de taire,

Qu’il bruslera luy mesme & son entant.

English.

He that by Iron shall destroy his Father, born in Nonnaire,

Shall in the end carry the blood of Gorgon,

Shall in a strange Countrey make all so silent,

That he shall burn himself and his intent.

ANNOT.

Nonnaire and Gorgon are two barbarous words, as for the sense of that and the rest, he that shall be able to read the words, shall be as wise as my self.
