by Nostradamus

Vexée Sardaigne par la punique fuste,

Apres le Libra lairra son Phaeton.

English.

By fire from Heaven the City shall be almost burnt,

The Waters threatens another Deucalion,

Sardaigne shall be vexed by an African Fleet,

After that Libra shall have left her Phaeton.

ANNOT.

All is plain but the last Verse, the sense of which is, that the things before spoken, shall happen when the Sun is newly come out of the sign of Libra.
