by Nostradamus

In Lyons the day of the Sacrament,

Those of Vienna shall be all cut to pieces,

By the Latin Cantons, after the example of Mascon.

ANNOT.

This foretelleth a notable Treason that shall be acted at Lyons, upon the Sacraments day, otherwise called Corpus Christi day, upon which the Roman Catholicks are wont to make a Procession with the Sacrament about the Town, with abundance of burning Torches, of fearful bigness, insomuch that some (as at Angeirs) require 20 or 24 men to carry them, in those Torches (our Author saith) shall Weapons be hidden, by means of which the fact shall be committed. The rest is easie.

French.

Au lieux Sacrés, animaux veus a Trixe,

Avec celuy qui nosera le jour,

A Carcassonne pour disgrace propice,
