Vingt ans du règne de la lune pa**ez, Sept mil ans autre tiendra sa monarchie : Quand le soleil prendra ses jours la**ez : Lors accomplir & mine ma prophétie. XLIX. Long before these happenings the people of the East, influenced by the Moon, in the year 1700 will cause many to be carried away, and will almost subdue the Northern area. L. From the three water signs will be born a man who will celebrate Thursday as his holiday. His renown, praise, rule and power will grow on land and sea, bringing trouble to the East. LI. The head of Aries, Jupiter and Saturn. Eternal God, what changes! Then the bad times will return again after a long century; what turmoil in France and Italy. LII. Two evil influences in conjunction in Scorpio. The great lord is murdered in his room. A newly appointed king persecutes the Church, the lower (parts of) Europe and in the North. LIII. Alas, how we will see a great nation sorely troubled and the holy law in utter ruin. Christianity (governed) throughout by other laws, when a new source of gold and silver is discovered. LIV. Two revolutions will be caused by the evil scythe bearer making a change of reign and centuries. The mobile sign thus moves into its house: Equal in favor to both sides. LV. In the land with a climate opposite to Babylon there will be great shedding of blood. Heaven will seem unjust both on land and sea and in the air. Sects, famine, kingdoms, plagues, confusion. LVI. Sooner and later you will see great changes made, dreadful horrors and vengeances. For as the moon is thus led by its angel the heavens draw near to the Balance. LVII. The trumpet shakes with great discord. An agreement broken: lifting the face to heaven: the bloody mouth will swim with blood; the face anointed with milk and honey lies on the ground. LVIII. Through a slit in the belly a creature will be born with two heads and four arms: it will survive for some few years. The day that Alquiloie celebrates his festivals Fossana, Turin and the ruler of Ferrara will follow. LIX. The exiles deported to the islands at the advent of an even more cruel king will be murdered. Two will be burnt who were not sparing in their speech. LX. An Emperor will be born near Italy, who will cost the Empire very dearly. They will say, when they see his allies, that he is less a prince than a butcher. LXI. The wretched, unfortunate republic will again be ruined by a new authority. The great amount of ill will accumulated in exile will make the Swiss break their important agreement. LXII. Alas! what a great loss there will be to learning before the cycle of the Moon is completed. Fire, great floods, by more ignorant rulers; how long the centuries until it is seen to be restored. LXIII. Pestilences extinguished, the world becomes smaller, for a long time the lands will be inhabited peacefully. People will travel safely through the sky (over) land and seas: then wars will start up again. LXIV. At night they will think they have seen the sun, when the see the half pig man: Noise, screams, battles seen fought in the skies. The brute beasts will be heard to speak. LXV. A child without hands, never so great a thunderbolt seen, the royal child wounded at a game of tennis. At the well lightning strikes, joining together three trussed up in the middle under the oaks. LXVI. He who then carries the news, after a short while will (stop) to breathe: Viviers, Tournon, Montferrand and Praddelles; hail and storms will make them grieve. LXVII. The great famine which I sense approaching will often turn (in various areas) then become worldwide. It will be so vast and long lasting that (they) will grab roots from the trees and children from the breast. LXVIII. O to what a dreadful and wretched torment are three innocent people going to be delivered. Poison suggested, badly guarded, betrayal. Delivered up to horror by drunken executioners. LXIX. The great mountain, seven stadia round, after peace, war, famine, flooding. It will spread far, drowning great countries, even antiquities and their mighty foundations. LXX. Rain, famine and war will not cease in Persia; too great a faith will betray the monarch. Those (actions) started in France will end there, a secret sign for on to be sparing. LXXI. The marine tower will be captured and retaken three times by Spaniards, Barbarians and Ligurians. Marseilles and Aix, Ales by men of Pisa, devastation, fire, sword, pillage at Avignon by the Turinese. LXXII. The inhabitants of Marseilles completely changed, fleeing and pursued as far as Lyons. Narbonne, Toulouse angered by Bordeaux; the k**ed and captive are almost one million. LXXIII. France shall be accused of neglect by her five partners. Tunis, Algiers stirred up by the Persians. Leon, Seville and Barcelona having failed, they will not have the fleet because of the Venetians. LXXIV. After a rest they will travel to Epirus, great help coming from around Antioch. The curly haired king will strive greatly for the Empire, the brazen beard will be roasted on a spit. LXXV. The tyrant of Siena will occupy Savona, having won the fort he will restrain the marine fleet. Two armies under the standard of Ancona: the leader will examine them in fear. LXXVI. The man will be called by a barbaric name that three sisters will receive from destiny. He will speak then to a great people in words and deeds, more than any other man will have fame and renown. LXXVII. A promontory stands between two seas: A man who will die later by the bit of a horse; Neptune unfurls a black sail for his man; the fleet near Gibraltar and Rocheval. LXXVIII. To an old leader will be born an idiot heir, weak both in knowledge and in war. The leader of France is feared by his sister, battlefields divided, conceded to the soldiers. LXXIX. Bazas, Lectoure, Condom, Auch and Agen are troubled by laws, disputes and monopolies. Carca**one, Bordeaux, Toulouse and Bayonne will be ruined when they wish to renew the ma**acre. LXXX. From the sixth bright celestial light it will come to thunder very strongly in Burgundy. Then a monster will be born of a very hideous beast: In March, April, May and June great wounding and worrying. LXXXI. Nine will be set apart from the human flock, separated from judgment and advise. Their fate is to be divided as they depart. K. Th. L. dead, banished and scattered. LXXXII. When the great wooden columns tremble in the south wind, covered with blood. Such a great a**embly then pours forth that Vienna and the land of Austria will tremble. LXXXIII. The alien nation will divide the spoils. Saturn in dreadful aspect in Mars. Dreadful and foreign to the Tuscans and Latins, Greeks who will wish to strike. LXXXIV. The moon is obscured in deep gloom, his brother becomes bright red in color. The great one hidden for a long time in the shadows will hold the blade in the bloody wound. LXXXV. The king is troubled by the queen's reply. Amba**adors will fear for their lives. The greater of his brothers will doubly disguise his action, two of them will die through anger, hatred and envy. LXXXVI. When the great queen sees herself conquered, she will show an excess of masculine courage. Naked, on horseback, she will pa** over the river pursued by the sword: she will have outraged her faith LXXXVII. Earthshaking fire from the center of the earth will cause tremors around the New City. Two great rocks will war for a long time, then Arethusa will redden a new river. LXXXVIII. The divine wrath overtakes the great Prince, a short while before he will marry. Both supporters and credit will suddenly diminish. Counsel, he will die because of the shaven heads. LXXXIX. Those of Lerida will be in the Moselle, k** all those from the Loire and Seine. The seaside track will come near the high valley, when the Spanish open every route. XC. Bordeaux and Poitiers at the sound of the bell will go with a great fleet as fast as Langon. A great rage will surge up against the French, when a hideous monster is born near Orgon. XCI. The Gods will make it appear to mankind that they are the authors of a great war. Before the sky was seen to bee free of weapons and rockets: the greatest damage will be inflicted on the left. XCII. Under one man peace will be proclaimed everywhere, but not long after will be looting and rebellion. Because of a refusal, town, land and see will be broached. About a third of a million dead or captured. XCIII. The Italian lands near the mountains will tremble. The co*k and the Lion not strongly united. In place of fear they will help each other. Freedom alone moderates the French. XCIV. The tyrant Selim will be put to d**h at the harbor but Liberty will not be regained, however. A new war arises from vengeance and remorse. A lady is honored through force of terror. XCV. In front of a monastery will be found a twin infant from the illustrious and ancient line of a monk. His fame, renown and power through sects and speech is such that they will say the living twin is deservedly chosen. XCVI. A man will be charged with the destruction of temples and sects, altered by fantasy. He will harm the rocks rather than the living, ears filled with ornate speeches. XCVII. That which neither weapon nor flame could accomplish will be achieved by a sweet speaking tongue in council. Sleeping, in a dream, the king will see the enemy not in war or of military blood. XCVIII. The leader who will conduct great numbers of people far from their skies, to foreign customs and language. Five thousand will die in Crete and Thessaly, the leader fleeing in a sea going supply ship. XCIX. The great king will join with two kings, united in friendship. How the great household will sigh: around Narbon what pity for the children. C. For a long time a gray bird will be seen in the sky near Dôle and the lands of Tuscany. He holds a flowering branch in his beak, but he dies too soon and the war ends.
