by Nostradamus

XXVI.

French.

Pour la faveur que la Cité fera,

Au grand qui tost perdra Camp de Bataille,

Le sang d’ans Pau le Thesin versera,

De sang feux, mors, noyez de coup de taille.

English.

Because of the favour the City shall shew,

To the great one, who soon after shall loose the Battle,

The Thesin shall pour blood into the Pau,

Of blood, fire, dead, drowned, by Edgeling.

ANNOT.

This is plain, if you observe that the Thesin is a River of Italy, and the Pau another, into the which the Thesin runneth.
