Apres la pluye de lait assez longuette,

En plusieurs lieux de Rheims le Ciel touché,

O quel conflit de sang pres deux lapreste,

Pere & Fils Rois, noseront approché.

After a pretty long rain of Milk,

In many places of Rhemes the lightning shall fall,

O what a bloody fight is making ready near them,

Father and Son, both Kings, shall not dare to come near.

Rhemes is a City in France. The rest is easie.
