Et ƒeront peuples eƒmeus contre leur Roy,

In the summer of 1792 the people rebelled against the king. One of the reasons was inflation – a large amount of paper money came into circulation. The rebels stormed Tuileries palace. The 10 August uprising was the 2nd revolution. Universal suffrage was proclaimed. The monarchy was deposed, the king was under house arrest. Many aristocrats, priests were arrested. The structure of power and laws has changed.

In line 4 the word Rapis is an anagram from the word Paris. Prussian troops invaded France and successfully attacked Paris.
