Le penultiesme de Surnom de Prophete,

Prendra Diane pour son jour & repos,

Loing vaguera par Frenetique teste,

Et delivrant un grand peuple d’Impos.

The last, but one of the Sirname of the Prophet,

Shall take Diana for his day and his rest,

He shall wander far by reason of his Frenetick head,

Delivering a great people from impositions.

This is concerning a false Prophet, which is called here the last but one of that Surname, who shall make Diana (that is Monday which is dedicated to Diana) his Sunday or Sabbath day, and so wandring to and fro in a Frenetick manner, shall perswade many people to pay no Taxes.
