by Nostradamus

XV.

French.

Dessous la Tombe sera trouvé le Prince,

Qu’aura le pris par dessus Nuremberg:

L’Espagnol Roy en Capricorne mince,

Feinct & trahy par le grand Vutitemberg.

English.

Under the Tomb shall be found the Prince,

That shall have a price above Nuremberg,

That Spanish King in Capricorn shall be thine,

Deceived and betrayed by the great Vutitemberg.

ANNOT.

We hear of no Prince that had that advantage upon Nuremberg, but only Gustavus Adolphus King of Sweden, who took it. The last two Verses signifie no more, then that the King of Spain shall be wasted at the time when the Sun is in Capricorn.
