by Nostradamus

XLVI.

French.

Le Ciel (de Plancus la Cité) nous presage,

Par clercs insignes & par estoiles fixes,

Que de son change subit saproche lage,

Ne pour son bien, ne pour ses malefices.

English.

The Heaven foretelleth concerning the City of Plancus,

By famous Clerks, and fixed Stars,

That the time of her sudden change is near hand,

Neither because of her goodness, or wickedness.

ANNOT.

The City of Plancus is Lion, because he was the Founder of it. That City is threatned here of a sudden change, caused neither by her goodness or wickedness, but by a certain position and aspect of the fixed Stars, which makes it fatal.
