Those Nostradamus fans with an eagle eye will notice that this article is about quatrain numbered 83 in Centurie Septiesme (Group of 100 number Seven), when the 1566 Lyon edition (along with the 1568 reprint) and the 1557 Lyon edition show “Century Seventh” as only having 42 quatrains. The question should be,”Where did number 82 come from?”
It comes from the 1630 reprint of the 1568 Lyon edition, produced in Troyes, France. This was printed after the death of Jean de Chavigny (1604) and after a reprint was done in 1627 in Lyon. The 1627 reprint did offer that Centurie Septiesme had grown to 44 quatrains, but nothing beyond that number (44). It did show Centurie Huictiesme (Century Eighth) had 101 quatrains; and it added Centuries XI and XII, with scattered quatrains supposedly retrieved.
These ‘after the fact’ editions should not be tossed out haphazardously (the baby hidden in the dirty bath water warning), but anything considered must be put to the test of divine syntax applied, to see if any ‘new quatrains’ have relevance to the stories found in the 1568 Lyon edition. As I leave Centuries XI and XII for others to discern, I do see merit in the four quatrains listed in the 1630 Troyes edition being analyzed, where quatrain VII-82 is one.
The page on the 1630 edition that lists this quatrain is headed as such:
This says: OTHERS QUATRAINS drawn ones from 12. under ones the Century seventh: whereby upon has been rejected ones 8. which themselves are found ones in them Centuries previous ones. Of those twelve, less the eight rejected, are four the listed: 73, 80, 82, and 83.
The one numbered VII-82 is shown as this:
This can translate into English as this:
………………….There witty trick shown to the contrary will issue from few
………………….Here death upon method revolted from through country,
………………….By reason of him return with it journey Barbarous
………………….Will be lifting up into the skies in that place openly declaring first blow given.
This quatrain has its two main theme lines begin with a capitalized La, which must be read as accented (Là), because capitalization is meaningless to an article (A, An, or The). As Là the focus is on “There” or “Here,” which is “In that place.” This means the main theme statements are poining importantly to “Here” and “There.” Both options can be read in both theme statements, as long as the same tranlation is not repeated. The same word in the lower-case (la) is found in line four, which can then be “in that place.”
When the main theme statement begins with “There,” that is where a “stratagem” will be based on “private hatred,” where the word simulté was defined by Randal Cotgrave as meaning, “a grudge, inward conceit against, private hatred or displeasure, gild over with a contenance or show to the contrary.” This means a “shift in war” will be devised from “private hatred,” to seem otherwise, so “There gilds over with a look contrary” to the truth. This “will be, exist, stand, rise,” and “issue from few” prior. This means a military “stratagem” will be a quite “uncommon shift in war”.
Seeing that as the main theme statement that governs th whole of this quatrain, it is important to know that Nostradamus wrote the word stratagem in quatrain IX-79, which is a known quatrain from his pen. The word also appears in the main theme statement, which says, “Le chef de classe par fraude stratageme,” (“Him head of rank for cheating shift in war,”). The word simulte is also found written by Nostradamus in quatrains, appearing two other times in quatrains V-36 and VI-47. In quatrain V-36, simulte is in the main theme statement that says, “De soeur le frere par simulte faintise,” (“From sister it brother through show to the contrary false pretense,”). In quatrain VI-47, simulte is found in the secondary theme statement, which states “Delaisseront leur simulte secrette:” (“Will be abandoning their show to the contrary hidden place:”). This usage acts to affirm the verbiage used in quatrain VII-82 is not out of line with that known to be written by Nostradamus.
This leads to a secondary theme statement that begins with a second La, which now must be translated as “Here.” This meaning then becomes the voice of Nostradamus (and Jesus’ soul within him, as his Lord), where “Here” is both France and the Christians of Europe (as opposed to “There” being where Muslims or non-Christians are). This follow the main theme (separated by a comma mark), such that the “stratagem There” is designed for “Here.” As a “shift in war,” the “rare” plan is for the “death” of “Here.” This is then relative to “Here” being “upon” a “path” or “course” that “resists efforts” that are standard and normal “stratagies” to change a “matter” that is said to be wrong. This “matter” (voye) is “for” a “land” or “country.”
This secondary theme statement must be seen as relative to the modern issue that has Muslims develop a “private hatred” of Western-Christian governments and people that support the unrightful gift of Palestine to Zionist Jews, allowing the “country” of Israel to exist. This refusal to heed normal “paths” of discussion over this issue (not abnormal talks about peace, ceasefires, partitions, and acceptance of a given that is wrong) is what will lead to “There” devising a “witty trick” that will pretend to go along, in acts “shown to the contrary,” while behind the scenes Muslims [Iran] “will issue from” the power of oil money the purchase of nuclear weaponry from the Soviet-Russian evil state, so a “rare” power that “few countries” possess will be in the hands of those who plan to used the Western “ways” against the Middle East against them. This means having Muslim “countries” pretend to be allies to the West, when they are not.
Line three then follows a colon, which is a sign that line three will clarify or add examples to this secondary theme of “Here death upon method revolted from through country”. This begins by repeating use of the word Par (now capitalized), which importantly states the “Reason” on “land” “will be uncommon” enough to make on seek “death” to an enemy, in a most “rare way.” This is “By reason of him,” who is one man (le as a masculine pronoun) that will devise this “stratagem There.” That “him” is none other than Osama bin Laden, who will be thought “dead,” only to “return” and be “coming back” to life. When “he” will be know “returning,” this will be “with it” that will be “By reason of” ships carrying ex-Soviet nuclear missiles on “voyages” from a “shift in war” (the Cold War) from Communism against Capitalism to Islam against Christianity (and their Zionist Jew friends). With weapons of mass destruction in the hands of “Barbarous” people with deep-rooted “private hatreds,” the “witty trick shown to the contrary” will initiate the End Times war.
Seeing this, line three does not end with any punctuation, meaning this flow of thought continues directly into the words of line four. That line then follows “Barbarous,” where an importance “Ignorance” of the extreme dangers of using nuclear weaponry makes that “rare stratagem” be “Uncivil” and “Rustic” of the worst kind. The only explanation for the following acts that “Will be lifting up into the skies” nuclear missiles is the religious fervor held by Muslims that will see Allah as “Exalting, Glorifying,” and “Commending exceedingly” the annihilation of all Christians and Jews in the world, as if nuclear missiles will kill the Great Satan.
This then leads to the third use of la (lower-case), where the acts that “Will be sending up to the skies” will be “in that place” to be fired, from “Here” (France) “in that place There” that is all places where Christian governments rule. This is symbolized by the use of protestante, which is at the root of the word “Protestant,” as Christians that are not Catholics (of a Universal dogmatic religion that shuns the Holy Bible as reading material, preferring to sell beads and books of recitable prayers to the flock). Still, in the lower-case spelling the word means “protesting, declaring,” or “openly declaring.” That becomes a release of the “private hatred” that comes from Christian nations supporting Zionist Jews, giving them stolen “land” to claim as their own “country.” Because the West allowed that “entrance” of Zionist Jews into Palestine (under British Protectorate, as declared by the League of Nations in 1922), the Muslims will make a suprise “beginning” to the End Times, “declaring” war via the “first blow given” in a “return” of Muslims into Spain, France, and Italy.
Because the topic of this interpretation was completely unknown in the sixteenth century (as well as the seventeenth century and beyond), the way it fits snugly into the stories foretold by many quatrains, this one makes complete agreement with that foreseen future. I, therefore, give my approval of this quatrain being witten by a hand connected to the same divine source (be it Nostradamus, his assistant Jean de Chavigny, or any other Saint that was divinely possessed to add to The Prophecies of Nostradamus).
