The
Hoax
Another hoax has been making the rounds.
This is what i have received from countless of people right after the US tragedy
on the September of 11 2001
"In the year of the new century and nine
months,
From the sky will come a great King of Terror
The sky will burn at forty-five degrees.
Fire approaches the great new city."
"In the city of york there will be a great
collapse,
2 twin brothers torn apart by chaos
While the fortress falls the great leader will succumb
The third big war will begin when the big city is burning."
- NOSTRADAMUS 1654
The first supposed prophecy does contain a few elements
from various quatrains written by Nostradamus; however, they were not written
together as one prophecy. The second "prophecy" being sent with
lightning speed across the Internet is completely bogus, as far as I can tell.
Incidentally Nostradamus died in the year 1566.
The following are a few genuine quatrains that you
might find interesting. And might be worth reading.
Century
1, Quatrain 87
Earth-shaking
fire from the center of the Earth.
Will cause the towers around the New City to shake:
Two great rocks for a long time will make war,
And then Arethusa will color a new river red.
Century
2, Quatrain 89
One
day the two great leaders will become friends,
Their great power will be seen to increase:
The new land will be at the height of its power,
To the bloody one the number reported.
Century
4, Quatrain 16
The
free city of Liberty made servile,
Made an asylum for corrupt ones and dreamers:
The King changed, to them not so vehement:
From one hundred will become more than a thousand.
Century
5 Quatrain 65
Suddenly
arrived, the terror will be great,
The principal players in the affair are hidden away:
And the lady in the hot coals will no longer be in sight,
Thus little by little will the great ones will be angered.
Century
6, Quatrain 97
At
five and forty degrees, the sky will burn,
Fire approaches the great new city,
Immediately a huge, scattered flame leaps up,
When they want to have verification from the Normans.
Century
8, Quatrain 17
Those
at ease will suddenly be cast down
The world put into trouble by three brothers,
The enemies will seize the marine city,
Famine, fire, blood, plague, all evils doubled.
Century
8, Quatrain 59
Two
times put high, two times put low,
The East also the West will weaken:
Its adversary after several battles,
Driven out by sea will fail at the time of need.
Century
9, Quatrain 81
The
sly King will understand his ambushes,
From three fronts the enemies assail,
A strange number, tears from the hooded men,
The brilliance of the translator will come to fail.
Century
10, Quatrain 49
Garden
of the world near the new city,
In the path of the hollow mountains:
It will be seized and plunged into the Vat,
Drinking by force the waters poisoned by sulfur.
Century
10, Quatrain 74
The
year the great seventh number is accomplished,
Appearing at the time of the games of slaughter:
Not far from the age of the great millennium,
When the dead will come out of their graves.
Century
10, Quatrain 97
Triremes
full of captives of all ages,
Times good to bad, the sweet for the bitter:
Prey to the Barbarians hasty they will be too soon,
Greedy to see the "plume" [feather or of smoke?] wail in the wind.
