The true prophecies or prognostications of Michael Nostradamus, physician to Henry II. Francis II. and Charles IX. Kings of France, and one of the best astronomers that ever were. / A work full of curiosity and learning. Translated and commented by Theophilus de Garencieres, Doctor in Physick Colleg. Lond.

by Nostradamus

Contraints seront de leur faire la Guerre.

English.

Six hundred and fifteen, and twenty, a great Lady shall die,

And a little after it shall rain for a great while,

Many Countreys as Flanders and England,

Shall by fire and Iron be afflicted,

And a good while Besieged by their Neighbours,

So that they shall be constrained to make War against them.

ANNOT.

What that great Lady was, that should die in the year 653. is not easie to guess, there being many in every Countrey that died that year. The rest is easie, and we have seen the truth of it in our days, and may see it hereafter.
