Chapter LXXXII: French

Text size

Cris, pleurs, larmes viendront avec couteaux,
Semblant faux donront dernier assaut,
L’entour parques planter profons plateaux,
Vifs repoussez & meurdris de plain saut.

English.

Cries, weeping, tears, shall come with daggers,
With a false seeming they shall give the last assault,
Set round about they shall plant deep,
Beaten back alive, and murdered upon a sudden.

ANNOT.

This seemeth to have a relation to the Scalado of _Geneva_, of which you shall have a full account in the 69 Stanza, of the twelfth Century.
