Nostradamus Prophecies- Quatrain 41-50

 

Quatrain 41

 

The city is besieged and assaulted by night;

few have escaped; a battle not far from the sea.

A woman faints with joy at the return of her son,

poison in the folds of the hidden letters.

 

Quatrain 42

 

The tenth day of the April Calends, calculated in Gothic fashion

is revived again by wicked people.

The fire is put out and the diabolic gathering

seek the bones of the demon of Psellus.

 

Quatrain 43

 

Before the Empire changes

a very wonderful event will take place.

The field moved, the pillar of porphyry

put in place, changed on the gnarled rock.

 

Quatrain 44

 

In a short time sacrifices will be resumed,

those opposed will be put (to death) like martyrs.

The will no longer be monks, abbots or novices.

Honey shall be far more expensive than wax.

 

Quatrain 45

 

A founder of sects, much trouble for the accuser:

A beast in the theater prepares the scene and plot.

The author ennobled by acts of older times;

the world is confused by schismatic sects.

 

Quatrain 46

 

Very near Auch, Lectoure and Mirande

a great fire will fall from the sky for three nights.

The cause will appear both stupefying and marvelous;

shortly afterwards there will be an earthquake.

 

Quatrain 47

 

The speeches of Lake Leman will become angered,

the days will drag out into weeks,

then months, then years, then all will fail.

The authorities will condemn their useless powers.

 

Quatrain 48

 

When twenty years of the Moon’s reign have passed

another will take up his reign for seven thousand years.

When the exhausted Sun takes up his cycle

then my prophecy and threats will be accomplished.

 

Quatrain 49

 

Long before these happenings

the people of the East, influenced by the Moon,

in the year 1700 will cause many to be carried away,

and will almost subdue the Northern area.

 

Quatrain 50

 

From the three water signs will be born a man

who will celebrate Thursday as his holiday.

His renown, praise, rule and power will grow

on land and sea, bringing trouble to the East.
