XXV.
French.
La Garde estrange trahira Forteresse, Espoir & umbre de plus haut mariage, Garde deceüe Fort prins dedans la presse, _Loire_, _Saone_, _Rhosne_, _Gar_, a Mort outrage.
English.
The Garrison of strangers shall betray the Fort, Under the hope and shadow of a higher Match, The Garrison shall be deceived, and the Fort taken in the crowd, _Loire_, _Saone_, _Rhosne_, _Gar_, shall do harm to Death.
ANNOT.
There is no difficulty but in the last Verse, where you must observe that _Loire_, _Saone_, _Rhosne_, and _Gardon_, which for the Verses sake is contracted into _Gar_; are Rivers of _France_, which are threatned here of overflowing, and causing the death of many people.
