By Ville Franche, Mascon shall be put in disorder,
In the Faggots shall Souldiers be hidden,
The time shall change in prime for the King,
By Chalon and Moulins they shall be all hewed to pieces.
ANNOT.
Ville Franche is a Town five Leagues from Lion; and Mascon another about the same distance from Ville Franche, and Chalon from Mascon, and Moulins from Chalon.
The meaning of it is this, that there shall be an attempt from Ville Franche upon Mascon, by Souldiers hidden in Faggots, that shall be cut off by the succours of those Chalons and Moulins; which like did happen in the time of the Civil Wars in France, between the King and the League, when the Towns stood one against another, but because I can find nothing of it in the History, I suspend my further judgement therein.
