By Fire and Sword not far from the black Sea, They shall come from _Persia_ to seize upon _Trebisonde_, _Pharos_ and _Methelin_ shall quake, Sun be merry, The Sea of _Adria_ shall be covered with _Arabian_ blood. ANNOT. This Prophecy foretelleth clearly and plainly, that the _Persians_ shall come to invade the Turkish dominions, a part of which is the Empire of _Trebisond_, and that _Pharos_ and _Methelin_ two Islands in the _Mediterranean_ Sea, shall quake for fear. As also that the _Adriatick_ Sea, which is that Sea that belongeth to the _Venetians_ shall be covered with Turkish blood, at which the Author is so jocund, as with an exclamation he inviteth the Sun to be merry, and rejoyce at it. XXVIII. French. Le bras pendu & la jambe liée, Visage pasle, au sein poignard caché, Trois qui seront jurez de la meslée, Au grand de _Genes_ sera le Fer lasché. English. The arm hanging, and the leg bound, With a pale face, a Dagger in the bosom, Three that shall be sworn to the fray, To the great one of _Genoa_ the Iron shall be darted. ANNOT. This manifestly foretelleth a conspiracy of three men against the Duke of _Genoa_, one of which three men, under the shew of a sore Arm, and an impotent Leg, shall carry a Dagger in his bosom, with which he shall stabb the said Duke. XXIX. French. La liberté ne sera recouvrée, L’Occupera noir, fier, vilain inique; Quand la matiere du Pont sera ouvrée, D’_Hister_, _Venise_ faschée la Republique. English. The liberty shall not be recovered, It shall be occupied, by a black, fierce, and wicked villain; When the work of the _Hister_-Bridge shall be ended, The _Venetian_ Common-wealth shall be vexed. ANNOT. This Stanza is divided into two parts, the first of which is comprehended in the two first Verses, _viz._ that the liberty of some politick body (he nameth not which) shall not be recovered, but shall be seized upon, by a black, fierce, and wicked villain. The second part is contained in the two last Verses, wherein he saith, that the Common-wealth of _Venice_ shall be in trouble, when the Bridge made over the River _Hister_ shall be finished. XXX. French. Tout a l’entour de la grande Cité, Seront Soldats logez par Champs & Villes, Donner l’assaut _Paris_, _Rome_ incité, Sur le Pont sera faite grand pille. English. Round about the great City, Soldiers shall lye in the Fields and Towns, Paris shall give the Assault, _Rome_ shall be attached; Then upon the Bridge shall be great plundering. ANNOT. This is concerning the taking and sacking of _Rome_, by the Duke of _Bourbon_, General of _Charles_ V. Forces, therefore he saith that _Paris_ shall give the Assault, because the said Duke of _Bourbon_ was a _Frenchman_. XXXI. French.
