Ceux dans les Isles de long temps assiegez,

Prendront vigueur force contre ennemis,

Ceux par dehors morts de faim profligez,

En plus grand faim que jamais seront mis.

Those in the Islands that have been long besieged,

Shall take vigour and force against their enemies,

Those without shall die for hunger; being overcome,

They shall be put in greater famine then they were before.
