Un peu devant l’ouvert commerce,
Ambassadeur viendra de _Perse_,
Nouvelle au Franc Pais porter,
Mais non receu vaine esperance,
A son grand Dieu sera l’offense,
Feignant de le vouloir quitter.

English.

A little before that Trade shall be open,
An Embassador shall come from _Persia_,
To bring news into _France_,
But he shall not be received, O vain hope!
To his great God shall the offence be,
Faining that he would leave him.

ANNOT.

In the year 1608. the year before the Truce was concluded between the _Spaniard_ and the _Hollanders_, by which all free Commerce was opened through _Europe_. The King of _Persia_ being then in War with the great _Turk_, sent an Embassador to all the Christian Princes, and chiefly into _France_, to move them to make a diversion in so fit a time, but he could prevail nothing, and went back again _re infecta_, which he thought to be a great injury done to his Prophet _Mahomet_.
