Chapter LIV: French

Arrivera au port de _Corsibonne_,
Pres de _Ravenne_, qui pillera la Dame,
En Mer profonde legat de _Ulisbone_,
Soubs Roc cachez raviront septante ames.

English.

There shall come into the Port of _Corsibonne_,
Near _Ravenna_, those that shall plunder the Lady,
In the deep Sea shall be the Embassador of _Lisbonne_,
The hidden under the Rock, shall carry away seventy Souls.

ANNOT.

The Port of _Corsibonne_, must of necessity be that of _Ancona_; first because there is no Port of the former name near the City of _Ravenna_. Secondly, because _Ancona_ is near _Ravenna_.

By the Lady is meant the Chappel or Church of our Lady of _Loretto_, which is threatned here to be plundred by some _Turks_ or Pyrates, inticed thereunto by the manifold riches that are said to be therein.

The third Verse speaketh of a _Portugues_ Embassador, who it seemeth shall be drowned or buried in the main Sea.

The fourth Verse giveth warning of some Robbers and Pyrates, very like to be _Turks_, who being in Ambuscado, and shrouded among the Rocks by the Sea side, shall carry away seventy Souls.
