XXVII.

French.

Au coin de Vast la grand Cavalerie,

Proche a Ferrare empeschée au Bagage,

Pompe a Turin front telle volerie,

Que dans le fort raviront leur hostage.

English.

In the corner of Vast the great Troop of Horse,

Near Ferrara, shall be busied about the baggage,

Pompe at Turin, they shall make such a robbery,

That in the Fort they shall ravish their hostage.

ANNOT.

I could not find what he meaneth by this place Vast, which being the Key of all the rest, I could proceed no further, but am constrained to go to bed, and leave this for to night, among Insolubilia de Alliaco.
