The word "coronel" in French is not the word colonel. If you insert nv (Vn) before e, remove o, you get Cronnvel (nn looks like m) Perhaps this is how Nostradamus encrypted Cromwell's name.
3-4 lines. Charles II (Prince) son of the executed king of England Charles I, convened army, opposed the impostor. The decisive battle of Worcester 3 September 1651, and Prince lost it. Oliver's army in numbers was much more than that of the Prince. After the defeat, he had to hide in the branches of an oak tree. Then Charles fled to France.
Connection with other quatrains: 1.65 – the same events.
Decoding of the number 4.62. If 6 to flip in 9, rearrange numbers – 249 and to consider 2 as 2000, then 2000-49=1951. Fliping 9 in 6, we get 1651 – year of battle.
Quatrain 1.65 Battle of Worcester
Enfant sans mains, iamais veu si grand foudre
L'enfant Royal au ieu d'esteuf blesse:
Au puy brisez, fulgures allant moudre,
Trois sur les chaines par le milieu trousse.
A prince without hands, never so great a thunderbolt seen,
the royal heir wounded at a game.
At the well lightning strikes, joining together
three trussed up in the middle the oaks.
The decisive battle 1651 near Worcester, between the troops of Charles II and Cromwell, is predicted. Perhaps thunderbolt should be understood as a bombing of the city. Cromwell’s army, 2 times more then royal, won.
Without hands must be understood in a figurative sense – without an army. Karl hoped to gather an army in England, but the people took Cromwell's side. As a result Karl lost the battle and was left without an army. Karl fled with the adjutant and servant. They three hid for a day in the branches of an oak tree, which later was called the "royal". Karl managed to escape to France after 1.5 months.
Decoding of the number 1.65. The year is explicit. Adding 1 to the end, we get 1651 – the year of the battle.
Quatrain 8.76 Oliver Cromwell
Plus Macelin que Roy en Angleterre,
Lieu obscur nay par force aura l'empire:
Lasche sans foy sans loy seignera terre.
Son temps s'aproche si pres que ie souspire.
More of a butcher than a king in England,
born of obscure rank will gain empire through force.
Coward without faith, without law he will bleed the land;
His time approaches so close that I sigh.
Oliver Cromwell (1599-1658) was a leader of English revolution and Lord Protector of England, Scotland and Ireland from 1653.
The 1 line – as a result of the revolution that Cromwell led, King of England was executed.
The 2 line – Cromwell was a descendant of a poor Puritan landowner. Thanks to the revolution, he managed to rise very high. After executing the king, he took his place as a Lord Protector.
The 3 line – Having surrounded himself with his people, Oliver concentrated all power in his hands. He imposed taxes on the country, especially on the defeated monarchists. The revolts in Ireland and Scotland were suppressed by the most severe methods, there was a war against Spain. Coward without faith: Cromwell lived in the constant fear for his life. He organized round-the-clock security for himself. The fearing a night attack, he often spent the night in different places.
The 4 line. Cromwell was born 33 years after the death of Nostradamus. If we consider that the prophecies extend up to the 7th millennium, then in comparison with this, Cromwell's time was close.
Linkage with other quatrains: 9.49
Probable decoding of number 8.76. If we 7 consider as 700, then 700-68=632. If we flip 2 in 5, swap it with 3 and add 1 in front it will be 1653 – the year of power takeover.
Quatrain 10.40* Charles II
Le ieune nay au regne Britannique,
Qu'aura le pere mourant recommande,
Iceluy mort Lonole donra topique,
Et a son fils le regne demande.
The young heir to the British realm,
Whom his dying father will have recommended:
The latter dead 'Lonole' will dispute with him,
And from the son the realm demanded.
Charles II Stuart (1630-1685) – the king of England, Scotland, Ireland from 1660, the son of Charles I.
Lonole – Oliver Cromwell was leader of the English revolution. After Cromwell's death, his son could not to hold power. The Stuart dynasty was restored. The new king issued an Amnesty to all except for the judges of Charles I. Many of them were convicted and executed. As they say: do not judge, and you will not be judged.
Linkage with other quatrains: 8.76.
Decoding of the number 10.40. 1000-40=960. By turning 9 in 6 and placing 1 in front we get 1660 – the year of beginning of reign.
Quatrain 2.53[1] Plague in England
La grande peste de cite maritime
Ne cessera que mort ne soit vengee:
Du iuste sang par pris damne sans crime,
De la grand' dame par fainte n'outragee.
The great plague of the maritime city
Will not cease until there be avenged the death:
Of the just blood, condemned for a price without crime,
Of the great lady insulted by pretense.
The 1 line. In 1665 the great bubonic plague was in London. It killed ~25% population of capital. Merchant ships with cotton brought epidemic from Netherland. The fleas, infected from ship's rats, were carriers of the plague.
The 2 – 3 lines. Probably the prophet considered the plague in England as punishment for the execution of king Charles I. In 1666 the big fire in London became end of plague. It deleted fleas, rats and infection. The city was rebuilt already with due regard the requirements of sanitation.
The 4 line tells about the insulted noble lady. Perhaps this is the wife of Charles I, which was exile to France with children.
Decoding of the number 2.53. If 2 to consider as 2000, 2000-35=1965, 9 to flip in 6, then we get 1665 – year of the beginning of a plague.
Quatrain 2.51 Fire in London
Le sang du iuste a Londres fera faute,
Bruslez par foudres de vingt trois les six,
La dame antique cherra de place haute,
De mesme secte plusieurs seront occis.
The blood of the righteous will bring blame to London.
Burned by lightning at twenty by three and six,
The ancient lady will fall from her high place,
Several of the same sect will be killed.
Nostradamus predicted the Great Fire in London from September 2 to 5, 1666 (666 is the number of the Antichrist). The numbers 2 and 5 in the quatrain's number indicate the days of the beginning and end of the fire. The second line shows the year of the fire: 20×3=60 and 6 – 66 year. The first line is about the cause of the fire. This is a punishment for Londoners for the innocently shed blood of king Charles I.
The fourth line speaks of foreigners and Catholics killed by a crowd. Many residents believed that the cause of the fire was arson organized by the French and Dutch, with whom there was a war.
Decoding of number 2.51. If 2 to consider as 2000, 5 to turn over into 2, then 2000-21=1979. 7-1=6. Turn 9 over into 6 we get 1666 – the year of the fire.
Quatrain 2.28 Jonathan Swift?
Le penultine du surnom de prophete
Prendra Diane pour son iour & repos,
Loing vaguera par frenetique teste,
Et deliurant vn grand peuple d'imposts.
The penultimate of the surname of the Prophet
Will take Diana for his day and rest:
He will wander far because of a frantic head,
And delivering a great people from subjection.
Maybe this prophecy is about the Irish priest and writer Jonathan Swift (1667-1745). In Hebrew his name means "God-given." Several prophecies can be found in his book "Gulliver's Travels".His best known prediction is about two Mars satellites discovered after 150 years. One of the Demos's craters was named after his name. Swift also gave a rather detailed description of the flying apparatus design which almost completely coincides with the description, which E. Casey gave 200 years later. In the book "Voyage to Laputa" there are 2 statements coinciding with Nostradamus prophecies. These are predictions about of the end of the world and a fiery comet which will ignite the Earth. All this shows that Swift had a gift of foresight.
