Quatrain 5.33 Uprising in Vendée

Des principaux de cite rebelee

Qui tiendront fort pour liberte rauoir:

Detrencher masses infelice meslee,

Cris vrlemens a Nante; piteux voir.

Of the principal ones of the city in rebellion

Who will strive mightily to recover their liberty:

The males cut up, unhappy fray,

Cries, groans at Nantes pitiful to see.
