82. The stratagem in the quarrel will be uncommon
The death en route in the country rebellion:
On the return from the Barbarian voyage
They will exalt the Protestant entry.

83. Wind warm, counsels, tears, timidity,
By night in bed assailed without arms:
Great calamity from oppression,
The wedding song converted, weeping and tears.

Century VIII

1. Several will be confused in their waiting,
Pardon will not be given the inhabitants:
Those who thought well of persisting in the waiting,
But not much spare time will be given them.

2. Several will come, and will speak of peace,
Between Monarchs and very. powerful lords:
But it will not be accorded so soon,
Unless they become more obedient than the others.

3. Alas what a fury! Alas what a pity
Will there be between people:
Never did one see such a friendship
As the wolves will have diligent in running.

4. Many people will want to come to terms
With the great lords who will bring war upon them:
They will not want to hear anything of it from them,
Alas! if God does not send peace to the earth.

5. Varieties of aid will come from all sides,
From distant people who will want to resist:
Suddenly they will be much urged on,
But they will be unable to assist at that hour.

6. Alas, what ambition foreign Princes have,
Take careful heed lest they come into your country:
There should be terrible dangers
And in many countries, even in Vienna.
