Century II, Quatrain 2
The blue leader will inflict upon the white leader as much damage
as France has done them good. Death from the great antenna
hanging from the branch, when the king will ask how many
of his men have been captured.
How many more will be captured from the Great One before he realizes he is in dire straits.
Century II, Quatrain 3
Because of heat like that of the sun upon the sea the fish around
Negrepont will become half cooked. The local people will
eat them when in Rhodes and Geona there is lack of food
According to many, fire from the skies will cause the sea to boil over with half cooked fish. Because of great famine during the war, many will eat them. Could this be a meteor or an atomic bomb? Revelation talks about a star called "Wormwood" falling from the sky. The name Chernobyl in Russian means wormwood.
Century II, Quatrain 5
When weapons and documents are enclosed in a fish,
out of it will come a man who will then make war.
His fleet will have traveled far across the sea
to appear near the Italian shore.
The American fleet has traveled far across the sea, but so has Russia's fleet. Could this be talking about the antichrist, which will come from the east? Many hold this to be true. The fleet brought by this unnamed man has traveled a great distance to appear in either the Mediterranean or Adriatic sea.
Century II, Quatrain 6
Near the harbour and in two cities will be two scourges,
the like of which have never been seen.
Hunger, plague within, people thrown out by the sword
will cry for help from the great immortal God.
One only has to see the pictures of the refugees to relate to this quatrain.
There seems to be an attack upon two cities. It will probably be New York and Washington. Only time will tell when and how.
Century II, Quatrain 8
Temples consecrated in the early Roman fashion,
they will reject the broken foundations;
taking their early human laws,
expelling almost all the cults of the saints.
A revival which will produce true Christianity instead of a pseudo-gospel.
Century II, Quatrain 9
For nine years the thin man will keep a peaceful rule,
then he will fall into so bloody a thirst
that a nation will die for him without faith or law;
killed by a much better natured man.
Century II, Quatrain 13
The body without a soul no longer at the sacrifice.
At the day of death it is brought to rebirth.
The divine spirit will make the soul rejoice
seeing the eternity of the word.
Century II, Quatrain 23
Birds at the palace,
chased out by a bird very soon after the upstart prince.
How many of the enemy are repulsed beyond the river,
the upheld bird seized from without by a trick.
The birds here probably are talking about airplanes. The upstart prince must be talking about a newly elected president to the United States. Whatever happens, it will cause great repulsion beyond the river. One of the airplanes will be tricked or caused to not reach its destination by overthrow or trickery.
Century II, Quatrain 24
Beasts wild with hunger will cross the river,
the greater part of the battlefield will be against Hister.
He will drag the leader in a cage of iron,
when the child of Germany observes no law.
Here Nostradamus almost spells out the name of Hitler.
Century II, Quatrain 27
The divine voice will be struck by heaven
and he will not be able to proceed further.
The secret is hidden with the revelation
So that people will walk over and ahead.
Century II, Quatrain 28
The last but one of the prophets' name,
will take Monday for his day of rest.
He will wander far in his frenzy
delivery a great nation from subjection.
Century II, Quatrain 29
The man from the East will come out of his seat
and will cross the Apennienes to see France.
He will cross through the sky, the seas and the snows
and he will strike everyone with his rod.
The antichrist will assess his position and when he is ready he will strike very forceful.
Century II, Quatrain 30
A man who revives the infernal Gods of Hannibal,
The terror of mankind,
Never more horror nor the papers tell of worst in the past,
Then will come to the Romans through Babel.
The man who revives the infernal Gods of Hannibal refers to someone from the Middle East, presumably the antichrist.
Century II, Quatrain 32
Milk, blood, frogs will be prepared in Dalmatia;
Battle engaged, plague near Balennes.
A great cry will go up throughout Slavonia,
Then will a monster be born near Ravenna.
The former province of Slavonia is now part of Northern Yugoslavia and part of the Hungarian Empire. Ravenna is in Central Italy and Dalmatia is on the Eastern Adriatic. Very frightful when you place these in context of the crisis in Kosovo.
Century II, Quatrain 38
There will be a great number of condemned people
when the monarchs are reconciled.
But one of them will be so unfortunate
That they will hardly remain allies.
This talks about the division that the war in Kosovo has caused between America and Russia.
Century II, Quatrain 41
The great star will burn for seven days
And the cloud will make the sun appear double.
The large mastiff will howl all night
When the great pontiff changes his abode.
This is the timetable for the end of the Pope's reign. Whether he will be killed, assassinated or just have to leave we will soon see.
Century II, Quatrain 43
During the appearance of the bearded star,
The three great princes will be made enemies.
The shaky peace on earth will be struck from the skies,
The Po, the winding Tiber,
a serpent placed upon the shore.
Could Hale Bopp have been the bearer of the bad omen of war that we see now which will cause the division of the great three super powers Russia, America, and China?
Century II, Quatrain 46
After great misery for mankind an even greater approaches
When the great cycle of the centuries is renewed.
It wil rain blood, milk, famine, war and disease:
In the sky will be seen a fire,
Dragging a trail of sparks.
Again a comet seems to have foretold the ill fortunes of war.
Century II, Quatrain 62
Mabus will then soon die
and there will come a dreadful destruction
of people and animals.
Suddenly vengeance will be revealed,
A hundred hands, thirst and hunger,
When the comet will pass.
The comet is essential to dating many of these prophecies about W.W.III.
Century II, Quatrain 65
In the feeble lists,
Great calamity through America and Lombardy.
The fire in the ship, plague and captivity;
Mercury in Sagittarius, Saturn warning.
It doesn't take a nuclear scientist to see that the cruise missiles that we are firing are referred here as "the fire in the ship". As we have seen and will see on a greater scale, many casualties from this war, which will infect the whole world.
Century II, Quatrain 75
The call of the unwanted bird
Being heard on the chimney stack;
Bushel of wheat will rise so high
That man will devour his fellow man.
The use of some sort of jet or airplane will cause some kind of catastrophic event to happen to the world trade center. Much like the bomb that went off a few years ago, it has not seen the end of destruction. The event will cause a monetary crisis because trade will cease for some time. Economic times will become so hard that man will become a man-eater.
Century II, Quatrain 89
One day the two great leaders will be friends;
Their great power will be seen to grow.
The new land will be at the height of its power,
To the man of blood the number is reported.
It seems that the antichrist began to access his power after the United States and Russia became friends. I am afraid from this that America has seen its crescendo as a world power.
Century II, Quatrain 91
At sunrise a great fire will be seen,
Noise and light extending towards the North.
Within the globe death and cries are heard,
Death awaiting them through weapons, fire and famine.
This is either an attack on Russia or the United States in which many deaths are caused.
Century II, Quatrain 95
The populated lands will become uninhabitable,
Great disagreement in order to lands.
Kingdoms given to men incapable of prudence.
Then for the great brother, death and dissension.
The one thing that sticks out here is that the most immoral leaders ever in history control the kingdoms of the world.
Century II, Quatrain 96
A burning torch will be seen in the sky
at night near the end and source of the Rhone.
Famine and weapon; help provided too late,
Persia will turn and invade Macedonia.
Iran will invade Macedonia when the antichrist feels it is time to make his move.
