Prophecies by Nostradamus

At the well lightning strikes, joining together

three trussed up in the middle the oaks.

The decisive battle 1651 near Worcester, between the troops of Charles II and Cromwell, is predicted. Perhaps thunderbolt should be understood as a bombing of the city. Cromwell’s army, 2 times more then royal, won.

Without hands must be understood in a figurative sense – without an army. Karl hoped to gather an army in England, but the people took Cromwell's side. As a result Karl lost the battle and was left without an army. Karl fled with the adjutant and servant. They three hid for a day in the branches of an oak tree, which later was called the "royal". Karl managed to escape to France after 1.5 months.

Decoding of the number 1.65. The year is explicit. Adding 1 to the end, we get 1651 – the year of the battle.

Quatrain 8.76 Oliver Cromwell

Plus Macelin que Roy en Angleterre,

Lieu obscur nay par force aura l'empire:

Lasche sans foy sans loy seignera terre.

Son temps s'aproche si pres que ie souspire.

More of a butcher than a king in England,

born of obscure rank will gain empire through force.

Coward without faith, without law he will bleed the land;

His time approaches so close that I sigh.

Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658) was a leader of English revolution and Lord Protector of England, Scotland and Ireland from 1653.

The 1 line – as a result of the revolution that Cromwell led, King of England was executed.

The 2 line – Cromwell was a descendant of a poor Puritan landowner. Thanks to the revolution, he managed to rise very high. After executing the king, he took his place as a Lord Protector.

The 3 line – Having surrounded himself with his people, Oliver concentrated all power in his hands. He imposed taxes on the country, especially on the defeated monarchists. The revolts in Ireland and Scotland were suppressed by the most severe methods, there was a war against Spain. Coward without faith: Cromwell lived in the constant fear for his life. He organized round-the-clock security for himself. The fearing a night attack, he often spent the night in different places.

The 4 line. Cromwell was born 33 years after the death of Nostradamus. If we consider that the prophecies extend up to the 7th millennium, then in comparison with this, Cromwell's time was close.

Linkage with other quatrains: 9.49

Probable decoding of number 8.76. If we 7 consider as 700, then 700-68=632. If we flip 2 in 5, swap it with 3 and add 1 in front it will be 1653 – the year of power takeover.

Quatrain 10.40* Charles II

Le ieune nay au regne Britannique,

Qu'aura le pere mourant recommande,

Iceluy mort Lonole donra topique,

Et a son fils le regne demande.

The young heir to the British realm,

Whom his dying father will have recommended:

The latter dead 'Lonole' will dispute with him,

And from the son the realm demanded.

Charles II Stuart (1630-1685) – the king of England, Scotland, Ireland from 1660, the son of Charles I.

Lonole – Oliver Cromwell was leader of the English revolution. After Cromwell's death, his son could not to hold power. The Stuart dynasty was restored. The new king issued an Amnesty to all except for the judges of Charles I. Many of them were convicted and executed. As they say: do not judge, and you will not be judged.

Linkage with other quatrains: 8.76.

Decoding of the number 10.40. 1000-40=960. By turning 9 in 6 and placing 1 in front we get 1660 – the year of beginning of reign.

Quatrain 2.53[1] (http://smallbay.ru/nostradamus07.html#) Plague in England

La grande peste de cite maritime

Ne cessera que mort ne soit vengee:

Du iuste sang par pris damne sans crime,

De la grand' dame par fainte n'outragee.

The great plague of the maritime city

Will not cease until there be avenged the death:

Of the just blood, condemned for a price without crime,

Of the great lady insulted by pretense.

The 1 line. In 1665 the great bubonic plague was in London. It killed ~25% population of capital. Merchant ships with cotton brought epidemic from Netherland. The fleas, infected from ship's rats, were carriers of the plague.

The 2 – 3 lines. Probably the prophet considered the plague in England as punishment for the execution of king Charles I. In 1666 the big fire in London became end of plague. It deleted fleas, rats and infection. The city was rebuilt already with due regard the requirements of sanitation.

The 4 line tells about the insulted noble lady. Perhaps this is the wife of Charles I, which was exile to France with children.

Decoding of the number 2.53. If 2 to consider as 2000, 2000-35=1965, 9 to flip in 6, then we get 1665 – year of the beginning of a plague.
