Century I Q41-Q45

C1:Q41

Siege en cité est de nuict assaillie,
Peu eschapé, non loin de mer conflict:
Femme de ioye, retours fils defaillie,
Poison & lettres cachees dans le plic.



City beseiged a night assault,
Few escaped, conflict not far from the sea:
The whore faints with joy at the return of her son,
Poison and letters hidden in the fold.


C1:Q42

Le dix Kalende d'Avril de faict Gotique,
Resuscité encor par gens malins:
Le feu estainct, assemblee diabolique,
Cherchant les os du d'Amant & Pselin.



The tenth of the Calends of April, in Gothic count,
Revived again by wicked people:
The fire extinguished diabolic assembly,
Seeking the bones of the daemon of Psellus.


C1:Q43

Auant qu'aduienne le changement d'empire,
Il aduiendra vn cas bien merueilleux:
Le champ mué, le pillier de porphire,
Mis, translaté sus le rocher noilleux.



Before the changing of the empire occurs,
There will occur one very marvelous event:
The field moved, the pillar of porphyry,
Placed, transferred on the gnarled rock.


C1:Q44

En bref seront de retour sacrifices,
Contreuenans seront mis à martire:
Plus ne seront moines, abbez, ne nouices,
Le miel sera beaucoup plus cher que cire.



In a short time sacrifices will be returned,
Transgressors will be put to martyrdom:
No longer will there be monks, abbots or novices,
The honey will be much more expensive than wax.


C1:Q45

Secteur de sectes grand peine au delateur,
Beste en theatre dressé le ieu scenique:
Du faict antique ennobly l'inuenteur,
Par sectes monde confus & schismatiques.



Cutter of sects great punishment to the informer,
Beast in the theatre prepares the scene:
The ancient fact exalts the inventor,
Because the world sects confused and schismatic.
