Prophecies by Nostradamus

Loyre, Son, Rosne, Gar, ? mort outragez.

The foreign guard will betray the fortress,

Hope and shadow of a higher marriage:

Guard deceived, fort seized in a hurry,

Loire, Saone, Rhone, Garonne, mortal outrages.

Perhaps, St. Bartholomew's night was predicted here – the mass extermination of the Huguenots by Catholics, which began in Paris at night on 24.08.1572.

1 line, possibly about participation of the Scottish guards in the massacre. The initiative of the Italian advisers to queen Catherine de 'Medici and duke of Alba is not excluded.

2 line. A few days before the tragic events, the wedding of Henry of Navarre (protestant) and princess Margaret of Valois (catholic) took place.

4 line. A wave of religious terror swept across many regions of France.

Linkage with other quatrains: 2.91, 4.47.

Decoding of the number 2.25. 200-25=175, in reverse order 571+1=572 – the year of St. Bartholomew's night.

Quatrain 3.91 King sick

L'arbre qu'estoit par si long temps sechе,

Dans vne nuit viendra ? reuerdir.

Cron. Roy malade. Prince pied ettachе,

Craint d'ennemis fera voile bondir.

The tree which had long been dead and withered,

In one night it will come to grow green again:

Cron. King sick, Prince with club foot,

Feared by enemies he will make his sail bound.

This prophecy is probably about the events after the St. Bartholomew's night in August 1572. According to the description of Pierre de L'Etoile a dry hawthorn bloomed in the cemetery of the Innocents in Paris, the day after the massacre of the Protestants. Huge crowds of people came to see this miracle.

After the events of that night, King Charles IX of France fell seriously ill and 1.5 years later, in 1574, died of tuberculosis. The Prince, probably Francis Alanson, the king's younger brother, organized a conspiracy to seize power. The conspirators, extradited by the prince, were executed, and Fran?ois was pardoned.

Feared by enemies is the fear of Protestants after a brutal massacre. The word voile translates not only as a sail, but has other meanings.

Quatrain 4.47[1] (http://smallbay.ru/nostradamus07.html#) Charles IX

Le noir farouche quand aura essayе,

Sa main sanguine par feu, fer, arcs tendus,

Trestout le peuple sera tant effrayе,

Voir les plus grands par col & pieds pendus.

The savage black one when he will have tried

His bloody hand at fire, sword and drawn bows:

All of his people will be terribly frightened,

Seeing the greatest ones hung by neck and feet.

Charles IX (1550-1574) was a French King starting from 1560, from the Angouleme branch of Valois. Due to the the infancy, his regent was the mother Catherine de Medici until 1563.

The 3 line – probably this is a prophecy about St. Bartholomew's Night. On the night of August 24, 1572 in Paris, before the day of St. Bartholomew, the mass extermination of Protestants by Catholics occurred. Then a wave of murders of Huguenots swept through other cities of France. The exact number of victims is unknown ~ 30 thousand people. The official responsibility for this bloodshed was taken by Charles IX himself.

The 4 line. Many of the richest and most notable Huguenots of France gathered in Paris for a wedding. The wedding of the sister of King Margarita (Catholic) and one of the leaders of Protestants Henry of Navarre took place 6 days before the tragic events. Many of them were killed that night. Two days before the massacre there was an attempt to assassinate Admiral Coligny, a leader of the Huguenots.

Linkage with other quatrains: 1.52, 6.63, 10.95.

Decoding of the number 4.47. If 4+1=5, 4 and 7 to swap, then we get 574 – the year of death.

Quatrain 6.83 Francis Duke of Anjou

Celuy qu'aura tant d'honneur & caresses,

A son entree en la Gaule Belgique,

Vn temps apres fera tant de rudesses,

Et sera contre a la fleur tant bellique. G ij

He who will have so much honor and flattery

At his entry into Belgian Gaul:

A while after he will act very rudely,

And he will act very warlike against the flower.

Francis Duke of Anjou Alanson (1555-1584) was the youngest son of Henry II and Catherine de Medici. In 1579 he took the side of the Flemish rebels against the protectorate of Spain. He was given the title of Duke of Brabant and so on. He gained popularity in Belgium.

In 1583 he brought in the troops from France aiming to take Antwerp by force. The townsmen revolted against him and he suffered a crushing defeat. In the next year year he died of tuberculosis.
