French.

Sera laissé le feu vif, mort caché,

Dedans les Globes horrible espouventable,

De nuict a classe Cité en poudre lasché,

La Cité a feu, l’ennemy favourable.

English.

The fire shall be left burning, the dead man shall be hid,

Within the Globes terrible and fearful,

By night the Fleet shall shoot against the City,

The City shall be on fire, the enemy shall be favourable unto it.
