Century I Q6-Q10

I Q6

L'oeil de Rauenne sera destitue,

Quand a ses pieds les aelles failliront:

Les deux de Bresse auront constitue,

Turin, Derseil, que Gaulois fouleront.

*****

The eye of Ravenna will be forsaken,

When his wings will fail at his feet:

The two of Bresse will have made a constitution

For Turin, Vercelli, which the French will trample.

I Q7

Tard arriue l'execution faicte,

Le vent contraire lettres au chemin prinses:

Les coniurez xiiij. d'vne secte:

Par le Rousseau senez les entreprinses.

*****

Arrived too late, the act has been done.

The wind was against them, letters intercepted on the way:

The fourteen conspirators of a party,

By Rousseau the enterprises be undertaken.

I Q8

Combien de fois prinse cite solaire

Seras changeant les loys barbares & vaines:

Ton mal s'approche. Plus seras tributaire,

Le grand Hadrie recourira tes veines.

*****

How often will you be captured, O city of the sun?

Changing the laws that are barbaric and vain:

Bad times approach you. No longer will you be enslaved,

The Great Hadrie will revive your veins.

I Q9

De l'Orient viendra le coeur Punique

Fascher Hadrie, & les hoirs Romulides

Accompage de la classe Libyque

Temples Mellites & proches Isles vuides.

*****

From the East will come treachery

To trouble Hadrie and the heirs of Romulus.

Accompanied by the Libyan fleet,

The Maltese temples and islands deserted.

I Q10

Serpens transmis dans la caige de fer,

Ou les enfans septains du Roy sont pris:

Les vieux & peres sortiront bas de l'enfer,

Ains mourir voir de fruict mort & crys.

*****

The serpent's coffin is put in a vault of iron,

Where seven children of the king are held:

The ancestors and fathers will rise from the depths of hell,

Lamenting to see the fruit of their line dead.
