Quatrain 9.20* Louis XVI
De nuict viendra par la forest de Reines,
Deux pars voltorte Herne la pierre blanche,
Le moine noir en gris dedans Varennes
Esleu cap. cause tempeste, feu, sang tranche. I iiij
By night will come through the forest of 'Reines,
Two couples roundabout route Queen the white stone,
The monk king in gray in Varennes:
Elected Capet causes tempest, fire, blood, slice.
Louis XVI (1754-1793) was a king of France from 1774, grandson of Louis XV.
In the quatrain, an attempt to escape has been predicted. On the night of June 21, 1791, Louis and his family secretly left in a carriage with three bodyguards. This escape was organized by the Swedish Count Hans Axel. B Sainte-Mene postmaster Drouet recognized the king in the passing carriage. He rode after them. In Varenne, he struck the bell when he realized that the page boy was a disguised Louis. The crowd gathered. The fugitives returned to Paris under escort. The people met them in complete silence, people’s faith in the king was undermined.
Under the pressure of the revolutionary masses, Louis was forced to accept the constitution of 1791 and become a constitutional monarch. Then he began to oppose the revolution, seeking support abroad. Further events led to the fact that on September 21, 1792 the king was convicted by the Convention and guillotined: "blood, slice".
There is a saying: "history repeats itself." The similarity of the characters and destinies of two emperors: Louis XVI and Nicholas II can serve as an example of such repeatability. Both are characterized as positive people, not spoiled by power and wealth. As weaknesses their susceptibility to the influence of stronger personalities was noted. The beginning of their rule was marked by tragic events. On the day of the coronation, both arranged a free treat to the people. Because of the crush many people died in the crowd. Both of these emperors were overthrown by the revolutions and executed, and members of their families also suffered.
Linkage with other quatrains: 5.38, 1.5, 1.14.
Decoding of the number 9.20. If 1 to put in front and to consider as 1000, 9 to put in end, then 1000-209=791 – the year of escape.
Quatrain 6.23 The arrest of king
D'efprit de regne munifmes defcriez.
Et feront peuples efmeus contre leur Roy,
Paix, fain?t nouueau fain?tes loix empirеes,
Rapis onc fut en fi tres-dur arroy.
Coins depreciated by the spirit of the realm,
And people will be stirred up against their King:
New peace made, holy laws become worse,
Paris was never in so severe an array.
In the summer of 1792 the people rebelled against the king. One of the reasons was inflation – a large amount of paper money came into circulation. The rebels stormed Tuileries palace. The 10 August uprising was the 2nd revolution. Universal suffrage was proclaimed. The monarchy was deposed, the king was under house arrest. Many aristocrats, priests were arrested. The structure of power and laws has changed.
In line 4 the word Rapis is an anagram from the word Paris. Prussian troops invaded France and successfully attacked Paris.
Decoding of number 6.23. 600-32=568. 568-1=567. If 56 to flip in 29 (297), then earrangement of numbers give 792 – year of the king’s arrest.
Quatrain 4.4 The events of 1793
L'impotent prince fasche, plaines & querelles
De raps & pilles par coqs & par lybiques
Grand est par terre, par mer infinies voilles,
Seure Italie sera chassant Celtiques.
The impotent Prince angry, complaints and quarrels,
Rape and pillage, by cocks and Africans:
Great it is by land, by sea infinite sails,
Italy alone will be chasing Celtic.
The first two lines are probably about revolutionary unrest in France and the raids of Libyan pirates.
The third line about execution of Louis XVI in 1793. After this England expelled the French ambassador and blocked the French coast using its fleet.
In Italy there was a war between France and Austria in that year for control of the peninsula.
Probable decoding of number 4.4. 400-4=396. 6+1=7. By swapping these numbers we will get 793 – the year of execution.
Quatrain 5.37 The trial of Louis XVI
Trois cens seront d'vn vouloir & accord,
Que pour venir au bout de leur attainte:
Vingt mois apres tous & records,
Leur Roy trahir simulant haine fainte.
Three hundred will be of one will & accord,
That to come to the end of their attack:
Twenty months after all & records,
Their king betray simulating feigned hatred.
1-2 lines. In the final vote over King Louis XVI of France, which ended at 2 a.m., 310 people voted for the immediate death penalty. He was beheaded on January 21, 1793.
