Le gros Traffic d’un grand Lion changé,

La pluspart tourne en pristine ruine,

Proye aux Soldats par playe vendangé,

Par Jura Mont, & Sueve bruine.

The great Trade of a great Lion alter’d,

The most part turneth into its former ruine,

Shall become a Prey to Soldiers and reaped by wound,

In Mont-Jura, and Suaube great Foggs.

This Prophecy is concerning the City of Lion in France, which is a Town of an exceeding great Trade, and is threatned to suffer an alteration, and a decay by War.
