by Nostradamus

XXVIII.

French.

Voile Symacle, Port Massiliolique,

Dans Venise Port marcher aux Pannons,

Partir du Goulfre & sinus Illirique,

Vast a Sicile, Ligurs coups de Canon.

English.

Symaclian Sail, Massilian Port,

In Venice to march towards the Hungarians,

To go away from the Gulf and Illirick Sea,

Toward Sicily, the Genoeses with Cannon shots.

ANNOT.

What he meaneth by Symaclian Sail, is not easie to determine; Massilian Port is that of Marseilles in France, called in Latine Massilia, the sense of this Prophecy then if any be, is, that a great Fleet shall go from thence to Venice, to carry succours to the Hungarians, who it seemeth shall be much distressed at that time by the Turks, and that Sicily and Genoa shall add to this Fleet a considerable succour of Men, and Warlike Munition.
