Chapter XLIX: French
_Venus_ & _Sol_, _Jupiter_ & _Mercure_,
Augmenteront le genre de nature,
Grande Alliance en _France_ se fera,
Et du Midy la Sangsue de mesme,
Le feu esteint par ce remede extreme;
En Terre ferme Olivier plantera.
English.
_Venus_ and _Sol_, _Jupiter_ and _Mercury_,
Shall augment humane kind,
A great Alliance shall be made in _France_,
And on the South the Leech shall do the same,
The fire extinguished by this extreme remedy,
Shall plant the Olive-Tree in a firm ground.
ANNOT.
By the consent of all Astronomers, those four benigne Planets augment generation.
That great Alliance mentioned here, by which the fire was extinguished, and the Olive-Tree planted in a firm ground, is the Marriage of the present King of _France_, _Lewis_, the XIV. with the Infanta of _Spain_, by which all differences were composed, and the Peace firmly settled.
