by Nostradamus

XLVIII.

French.

Planure Ausone fertile spacieuse,

Produira taons, & tant de sauterelles,

Clarte solairé deviendra nubilense,

Ronger le rout, grand peste venir delles.

English.

The Plain about Bourdeaux fruitful and spacious,

Shall produce so many Hornets and so many Grashopers,

That the light of the Sun shall be darkened,

They shall crap all, a great plague shall come from them.

ANNOT.

I cannot find in History that this hath yet happened, since the writing of these Prophecies, therefore I reckon it de futuro.
