by Nostradamus

XLVI.

French.

Pol Mensolée mourra trois lieues du Rhosne,

Fuis les deux prochains Tarare destrois,

Car Mars sera le plus horrible Throsne,

De Coq & d’Aigle, de France frere trois.

English.

Paul Mensolée Shall die three Leagues from the Rhosne,

Avoid the two straights near the Tarare;

For Mars shall keep such a horrible throsne,

Of Cock and Eagle, of France three Brothers.

ANNOT.

By this Pol Mensolée, he meaneth some proper name. Tarare is a great Mountain near the City of Lions, that hath two principal ways to go through, which here he calleth Straights; for indeed they are very dangerous for Thieves and Murderers. The rest is but a threating of War between the Emperour and France, when there shall be three Brothers in France.
