Au port de Agde trois fustes entreront,

Portant infection avec soy, pestilence,

Passant le pont mil milles embleront,

Et le pont rompre a tierce resistance.

English.

Three Galleys shall come into the harbour of Agde,

Carrying with them infection and Pestilence,

Going beyond the Bridge, they shall carry away thousands,

At the third resistance the Bridge shall be broken.

ANNOT.

Agde is a Sea Town in France upon the Mediterranean Sea, which is threatned here of three Galleys, that shall come into the Harbour of it, and shall bring with them infection and Plague; and besides carry away thousands of Captives, by which it seemeth, that these should be Turkish Galleys, till at last upon the third resistance of the Townsmen the Bridge shall be broken.
