Nostradamus' Twelfth Century

XII 4 *

Fire, flame, hunger, robber, wild smoke,
It will cause to fail, striking hard, to destroy faith:
Arrow of "DentČ" all Provence sucked up,
Driven out of the realm, enraged without spitting.

XII 24 *

The great relief come from Guienne,
It will halt quite near Poitiers:
Lyons surrendered through Montluel and Vienne,
And tradesmen will be plundered everywhere.

XII 36 *

A ferocious attack is being prepared in Cyprus,
Tear in my eye, for your imminent ruin:
Byzantine and Moorish fleet very great loss,
Two different ones, the great devastation by the rock.

 

XII 52 *

Two bodies, one head, fields divided in two,
And then to reply to four unheard ones:
Little ones for great ones, clear evel for them,
Lightning at the tower of Aiguesmortes, worse for "Eussouis"

XII 55 *

Sad counsels, disloyal, cunning,
Wicked advice, the Law will be betrayed:
The people stirred, wild, quarrelsome,
In borough as in town, the entire peace hated.

XII 56 *

King against King, and the Duke against Prince,
Hatred between them, horrible dissension:
Rage and fury throughout very province,
In France great war and horrible change.

XII 59 *

The accord and peace will be broken everywhere:
Friendships poluuted by discord:
Hatred awakened, all faith corrupted,
And hope. Marseilles without concord.

XII 62 *

Wars, debates, at Blois war and tumult,
Diverse watches, unexpected avowals:
To enter into ChÁteau TrompÉte, affront,
ChÁteau du HÁ, those who will be to blame for it.

XII 65 *

Through fury he will force the fort to hold,
Every heart to tremble. At Longon a terrible arrival:
The kick will become a thousand kicks,
Gironde, Garonne, never more horrible.

 

XII 69 *

Savoy near to go far, Lake of Geneva,
Very great preparations, return, confusion:
Far from the nephews of the late great "Supelman",
All of their following . . .

 

XII 71 *

Rivers, streams will be obstacles to evil,
The old flame of anger unappeased:
To run in France; this as of oracles,
Houses, manors, Palace, shaven sect.
