XXXVI.

French.

Dieu, le Ciel tout le Divin Verbe a l’Onde,

Porté par rouges sept razes a Bizance,

Contre les oingts trois cens de Trebisonde,

Deux Loix mettront, & horreur, puis credence.

English.

God, Heaven, all the Divine Word in water,

Carryed by red ones, seven shaved heads at Bisantium,

Against the anointed three hundred of Trebisond,

They shall put two Laws, and horror, and afterwards believe.

ANNOT.

This seemeth to foretel that the Sacrament according to the Roman Church, shall be carried by Cardinals and seven Priests to Constantinople, against which three hundred of Trebison shall dispute, who shall compare the two Laws with horror, and afterwards believe.
