Meanings of the French words deemed appropriate

Dechassee: f. = Expelled, ejected, driven, or chased away. Tournera= Will turn up, appear, come, turn around, return. Trouue= Found; devised, contrived, invented; gotten, had, obtained. Conjurez= Conjurers; also, warned, summoned, or called together; also, conspired against, or conspirators, plotters, planners of. Iamais- jamais= Ever, 'Plus que jamais'. More than ever, or before. Triomphera= Will triumph, rejoice. 'Trois et septante'= seventy-three. Assurez, as asseurez= Bold, fearless, hardy; confident, secure; also, assured, confirmed, settled; also, affirmed.

This verse concerns a very powerful woman, who will be a queen, and subdue many, but through a plot, she will be sullied and forced out of her realm. But she will return, bolder and stronger and the guilty ones ousted and slain.

Thus, we might translate

She, having been chased out of her realm, will return,
Her enemies found to be conspirators:
More than ever will she be triumphant,
Seventy-three to die for certain.
