by Nostradamus

That great City where the first man is, is Amsterdam, because the first Letter and the last Sylable of it maketh Adam: But of her affliction by Fire and Water, and of her being relieved by the French in the year 1610. I can find nothing in the History; those that are better furnished with Books than I am, may chance to satisfie themselves and others, better than I can do.

Le petit coin Provinces mutinées,

Par forts Chasteaux se verront dominées,

Encor un coup par la gent Militaire,

Dans bref seront fortement assiegez,

Mais il seront d’un tres grand soulagez,

Qui aura fait entrée dans Beaucaire.
