Description:
Pantagrueline Predictions is a parody of the usual predictions, entirely in the style of Rabelais' Pantagruel: the same accumulation of terms, burlesque or otherwise, the play with language, the threats to those who do not take him at his word, the great variety of epithets for hypocrites and deceivers, and the addressing of his readers.
