Dans iceluy retire en secret lieu,
Le Temple ouvrir, les liens fameliques,
Repris, ravis proye horrible au milieu.

A Treasure put in a Temple by _Hesperian_ Citizens,
In the same hid in a secret place,
The hungry bonds shall cause the Temple to be open,
And take again and ravish, a fearful prey in the middle.

ANNOT.

This is concerning a Treasure hid by _Spaniards_ (called here _Hesperian Citizens_) in a Church, which the people of a Town being poor, and almost starved, caused to be open, and did ransack it, but in the middle of it they found a strange prey, but what it was God knows.
