With Troian blood his marriage shall be,

And for certain he shall be hedged about with Spaniards.

By Troian blood is understood the French Nation, the meaning therefore is, that in the year that a great Inundation shall be in France, then shall a notable marriage be made, by which the French shall be hedged about, or fenced by Spaniards.

Sur le Sablon par un hideux Deluge,

Des autres Mers trouvé Monstre Marin,

Proche de lieu sera fait un refuge,

Tenant Savone esclave de Turin.
