by Nostradamus

Shall cause Italy to quake and one of St. Marck,

He shall be above all a famous Monarch.

ANNOT.

All these intricated words and sense foretell that, when a King of Danmarck named Hercules shall be made King of the Romans, that then Italy and Venice it self shall stand in great fear of him; and that he shall be as great a Prince or Monarch as ever was in Europe; and that very likely, for by his dignity of King of the Romans he consequently shall attain to the Empire.

XXXIV.

French.

Le part solus Mary sera Mitré;

Retour conflict passera sur la tuille,

Par cinq cens un trahir sera tultré,

Narbon & Saulce par coutaux avons d’huile.
