In the Meadow Fields of _Alein_ and _Varneigre_, Of the Mountain _Lebron_ near the _Durance_, Armies on both sides, the fight shall be so sharp, That _Mesopotamia_ shall be wanting in _France_.

ANNOT.

_Alain_ and _Varnaigre_ are two small Towns in _France_, seated by the Mountain _Lebron_, near the River called _Durance_, where the Author saith there shall be such a sharp fight, that _Mesopotamia_ shall be wanting in _France_, to understand this you must know, that _Mesopotamia_ is a Countrey between two Rivers from the Greek words μεσος, which signifieth middle, and ποταμὸς which signifieth a River, the meaning then of the Author is, that the Battle so sharp, the ground shall be wanting to bury the dead.
