by Nostradamus

At the ends of the Var to change the Pompotans,

Near the Shore shall three fair Children be born,

Ruine to the people by competent Age,

To change that Countreys Kingdom, and see it grow no more.

ANNOT.

The first Verse being made of insignificant words, as Var and Pompotans cannot be understood; the other three doth foretel of three handsom Children, that shall be born near the Shore, which when they have attained a competent Age, shall change the Kingdom of that Countrey, and suppress it.

XCVIII.

French.

Des gens d’Eglise sang sera espanché,

Comme de l’eau en si grande abundance,
