A mortality of plague affects children in Paris in August

Text originalOriginal text

Et si fit moult bel août, mais très grande mortalité était en celui temps, espécialement sur petits enfants, de bosse ou de vérole plate

Text translationEnglish translation of the text

The weather was benevolent in August, but the mortality due to 'bosse' or 'vérole plate' was important in that time, especially among children.
