XII.

French.

Au pres du lac Leman sera conduite,

Par garse estrange Cite voulant trahir,

Avant son meurtre a Ausbourg la grand suite,

Et ceux du Rhin la viendront envahir.

English.

Near the Leman Lake shall be a Plot,

By a strange Whore to betray a City,

Before she be kill’d her great retinue will come to Ausbourg,

And those of the Rhine shall come to invade her.

ANNOT.

We have said often before, that the Leman Lake is that of Geneva. The rest is so manifest, that it needs no interpretation.
