Chapter XLVI: French

Vuidez fuyez de _Thoulouse_ les rouges,
Du Sacrifice faire expiation,
Le Chef du mal dessoubs l’ombre des courges,
Mort estrangler carne omination.

English.

Get you gone, run away from _Thoulouse_ ye red ones,
There shall expiation be made of the Sacrifice,
The chief cause of the evil under the shade of gourdes,
Shall be strangled, a presage of the destruction of much flesh.

ANNOT.

This Prophecy doth onely and properly belong to the City of _Thoulouse_; and by it are warned all the red ones, that is, all those that usually wear Red or Scarlet Gowns, as those of the Parliament and the Capitols to come out of it, because saith he, _There shall an expiation be made of the Sacrifice_, meaning that there shall be a great slaughter among the Citizens, as it did happen at several times, the first _Anno_ 1563. another time when the first President _Durauti_, and several other of the red Gowns were put to death, _&c._ The two last Verses signifie, that the chief contriver of this uproar shall be strangled, and many others besides him.

XLVII.

French.

Les soubsignez d’indigne deliverance,
Et de la multe auront contre advis,
Change Monarque mis en perrille pence,
Serrez en cage se verront vis a vis.

English.

The underwritten to an unworthy deliverance,
Shall have from the multitude a contrary advice,
They shall change their Monarch and put him in peril,
They shall see themselves shut up in a Cage over against.

ANNOT.

This is plainly to be understood of those Traytors, the delivered and signed the death of King _Charles_ the I. of blessed Memory, against the sense and advise of at least three parts of four of the Nation, and who afterward saw themselves for the most part shut in Prison for this fact and brought to a shameful end.
