by Nostradamus

Some of the greatest Ladies in France carried away

ANNOT.

The whole sense of this is, that by reason of some bodies death, France shall make war against Spain by Sea and Land, and put Spain in great trouble.

The fourth Verse saith, that some of the greatest Ladies in France shall be carried away, but the question is, whether by the Spaniards, or (which is more probable) by their own Husbands going to war against Spain.

III.

French.

D’Arras & Bourges de Brodes grands enseignes,

Un plus grand nombre de Gascons battre a pied,

Ceux long du Rhosne saigneront les Espagnes,

Proche du Mont ou Sagunte sassied.
