by Nostradamus

XXXVII.

French.

Un peu devant que le Soleil sabsconse,

Conflict donné, grand peuple dubieux,

Profligez, Port-Marin ne fait responce,

Pont & Sepulchre en deux estranges lieux.

English.

A little before the Sun setteth,

A Battle shall be given, a great people shall be doubtful,

Of being foiled, the Sea-Port maketh no answer,

A Bridge and Sepulchre shall be in two strange places.

ANNOT.

The two first verses I believe are concerning the Battle of Saint Denis, which was fought in the Evening hard by Paris, and where the Constable of Montmorency was kill’d, which made that great people of Paris to be doubtful.

The other two Verses I leave to the interpretation of the Reader.
