Les dix Calendes d’_Avril_ de fait _Gothique_, Resuscité encor par gens malins, Le feu estaint, assemblée Diabolique, Cherchant les Os de _Damant_ & _Psellin_.

English.

The tenth of the Calends of _April_, _Gothik_ account, Raised up again by malitious persons, The fire put out, a Diabolical assembly, Shall seek for the Bones of _Damant_ and _Psellin_.

ANNOT.

The tenth of the Calends of _April_ is the 23. of _March_, _Gothik_ account signifieth the old account of the Calendar, before the reformation of it by Pope _Gregory_ the XIII. which old account is called here _Gothik_, because it is kept still by the Northern Nations, which do not acknowledge the Pope, as _Sweden_, _Denmark_, _Holland_, _England_, &c. at that time saith our Author, a Magician shall be raised up by malitious persons; which fire or tumult being put out, that Diabolical assembly will go about to seek the bones of two famous Magicians, _viz._ _Damant_ and _Psellin_ that were dead before.
