by Nostradamus

Du vieux Charon on verra le Phœnix,

Estre premier & dernier des fils,

Reluire en France, & d’un chascun aimable,

Regner long temps, avec tous les honneurs,

Qu’auront jamais eu ses Predecesseurs,

Dont il rendra sa gloire memorable.

English.

The Phœnix of the old Charon shall be seen,

To be the first and last of the Sons,

To shine in France, beloved of every one,
