French.

Le Tyran Sienne occupera Savone,

Le fort gaigné tiendra classe Marine,

Les deux Armées par la marque d’Ancone,

Par effrayeur le chef sen examine.

English.

The Tyrant Sienna shall occupy Savona;

The Fort being won, shall hold a Fleet,

The two Armies shall go in the mark of Ancona,

By fear the chief shall be examined.

ANNOT.

For the explication of this Stanza, you must understand that Sienna is a City in Italy, now under the Dominion of the Duke of Tuscany, who shall occupy Savona, a City now under the Dominion of the Common-wealth of Genoa; the rest is plain enough.
