French.

Dans le milieu de la Forest Mayenne,

Sol au Lion la Foudre tombera,

Le grand Bastard issu du grand du Maine,

Ce jour Fougeres pointe en sang entrera.

English.

In the middle of the Forrest of Mayenne,

Sol being in Leo the Lightning shall fall,

The great Bastard begot by the great du Main,

That day Fougeres shall enter its point into blood.

ANNOT.

Fougeres is either the name of a Town in little Britanny, or that of a Noble House, the words are very plain, therefore I leave the sense to every ones capacity.
