Ik heb even op internet gezocht, en probeer hier alle originele teksten die hij heeft opgeschreven te plaatsen. Het is lastig lezen, maar ik vind het best wel interessant.
Introduction Michel de Nostredame, better known as Nostradamus, was a famous astrologer who lived in the 16th century. He made many prophecies, both for his current era and the distant future. Most famous are his Centuries, a series of 942 verses, grouped in sets of 100, describing future events. A single verse is commonly called a quatrain and 100 quatrains a Centurie.
Since Nostradamus was French, all quatrains are originally in his language. But for the Net-community a possible translation is given along with the original. The reader should be aware that because of the obscure style of these prophecies there are many possible translations.
Other things you can find here are a biography of Nostradamus, the sixains, a letter introducing the sixains and some miscellaneous links to other sites that carry relevant information. There are also a few interpretations of some quatrains.
The Centuries and the accompaning texts are a result of a collaborative effort of some people on Usenet. Of course I wish to thank everybody who helped making the texts.

Biography of Nostradamus At noon December 14, 1503, at Saint-Rémy in Provence Michel de Nostredame, better known as Nostradamus, was born. His ancestry was Jewish, but by Edict of the king in 1501 all Jews were to become baptized, among those were the parents of Nostradamus, Jacques and Reyniere de Nostredame. Thus Michel was born christian and baptized. Michel was the first son, and he had four brothers, of which we know little. At a very young age it became clear that Michel was a very bright boy and his parents put his education into the hands of his grandfather, Jean. In addition to the rudiments of Mathematics, Greek, Latin and Hebrew Jean taught Michel the first rules of the celestial science: Astrology.
After his grandfather's death, Michel went to Avignon to study the liberal arts at the famous center of Renaissance learning. There he continued his study of the stars. His father however, became worried about these impractical sciences and sent Nostradamus off to Montpellier where he was to study medicine. In 1522 Michel obtained his bachelor's degree, after just three years of study, which was a demonstration of his intellect. Once he had his license to practise medicine he decided to go out into the countryside and help the many victims of the plague.
Four years later he returned to Montpellier to complete his doctorate. Nostradamus had some trouble in explaining his unorthodox remedies and treatments he had used in the countryside. Nevertheless his learning and ability could not be denied and he obtained his doctorate. He remained teaching at Montpellier for a year but by this time his new theories, for instance his refusal to bleed patients, were causing trouble and he set off wandering again.
Circa 1534 he settled in Agen and married a young girl whose name was lost, all that we know is that she was 'of high estate, very beautiful and admirable'. He had a son and a daughter by her and his life seemed complete.
Then disaster struck. The plague came to Agen and carried away many people. And although Nostradamus had saved many from the plague, he was unable to save those he loved most, he lost his wife and both children to the Black Death.
The loss of his family was a heavy blow to him but others were yet to come. His patients, seeing a doctor unable to save his wife and children, decided that they would rather have another docter. And finally his wife's family tried to sue him to retreive her dowry. Nostradamus set out on his wandering again for the next six years (1538-1544). We know little of this period. But many legends about his prophetic powers start to appear at this time.
By 1544 Nostradamus had settled in Marseilles, were he fought a new outburst of the plague. In November that year, the Provence experienced one of the worst floods of its history. The rivers filled with corpses and men and animals caused the plague to double in virulence. Nostradamus worked ceaselessly.
Afterwards Nostradamus moved on to Salon, where he were to settle for the rest of his life. In November 1547 he married Anne Ponsart Gemelle, a rich widow. The house in which they spent the remainder of their days can still be seen off the Place de la Poissonnerie.
After 1550 he produced a yearly Almanac - and after 1554 The Prognostications - which seem to have been successful, and encouraged him to undertake the much more onerous task of the Prophecies. He converted the top toom of his house at Salon into a study and as he tells us in the Prophecies, worked there at night with his occult books.
By 1555 Nostradamus had completed the first part of his book of prophecies that were to contain predictions from his time to the year 3797. The word Century has nothing to do with one hundred years; it was so called beacuse there were a hundred verses or quatrains in each book. The verses are written in a crabbed, obscure style, with a polyglot vocabulary of French, Provencal, Italian, Greek and Latin. In order to avoid being prosecuted as a magician, Nostradamus writes that he deliberatly confused the time sequence of the Prophecies so that their secrets would not be revealed to the non-initiate.
It is extraordinary how quickly the fame of Nostradamus spread across France and Europe on the strength of the Prophecies, published in their incomplete form of 1555. The book contained only the first three Centuries and part of the fourth.
The prophecies became all the rage at Court, the Queen, Catherine de Medici, sent for Nostradamus to come to Court. On August 15, 1556, Nostradamus and the Queen spoke together for several hours. The king, Henri II, granted Nostradamus only a brief audience and was obviously not greatly interested.
Two weeks later the queen sent for him a second time and now Nostradamus was faced with the delicate and difficult task of drawing up the horoscopes of the seven Valois children. Many people believe that Nostradamus already knew the faith of these children and that he had already written them down in the prophecies. However, the exact contents of the horoscopes remain a mystery.
Soon afterwards Nostradamus was warned that the Justices of Paris were inquiring about his magic practices, and he swiftly returned to Salon. From this time on, suffering from gout and arthritis, he seems to have done little except draw up horoscopes for his many distinguished visitors and complete the writing of the Prophecies.
In 1564 Catherine, now Queen Regent, decided to make a Royal Progress through France. While travelling she came to Salon and visited Nostradamus. They dined and Catherine gave Nostradamus the title of Physician in Ordinary, which carried with it a salary and other benefits.
But by now the gout from which Nostradamus suffered was turning to dropsy and he, the doctor, realized that his end was near. He made his will on 17th June 1566 and left the large sum, for those days, of 3444 crowns over and above his other possessions. On 1st July he sent for the local priest to give him the last rites, and when Chavigny took leave of him that night, he told him that he would not see him alive again. As he himself had predicted, his body was found the next morning.
He was burried upright in one of the walls of the Church of the Cordeliers at Salon, and his wife Anne erected a splendid marble plaque to his memory. Nostradamus' grave was opened by superstitious soldiers during the Revolution but his remains were reburied in the other church at Salon, the Church of St. Laurent, where his grave and portrait can still be seen.

Last Will and Testament of Michel Nostradamus
The year of Our Lord one thousand five hundred and sixty-six and the seventeenth day of the month of June. Just as there is nothing more certain than death, nothing is more uncertain than its hour. For this reason it is that in the presence of myself, Joseph Roche, royal notary and sworn scrivener of the present town of Salon, Diocese of Aries, and of the witnesses hereinafter named, there was present in his person Master Miehel Nostradamus, Doctor in medicine and Astrophile of the said town of Salon, Counselor and Physi-cian-in-Ordinary of the King.
The latter, considering and being in his full understanding, resting well and seeing and understanding, and although all-told not being weakened, because of his ancient age and certain bodily illness, by which he is at present confined, wishes to provide while he is alive for his possessions that God the Creator has given him and lent him for this mortal world, to the end that after his decease and passing, there will be no question, process and difference over these possessions.
Therefore the said M. Michel Nostradamus of his own mind, pure and free will, by his own movement and deliberation, has made, ordered and established, and by these presents makes, orders and establishes his non-cupative will, disposition and final ordinance in the form and manner that follows:
Firstly, as a good, true and faithful Christian, he has recommended his soul to God the Creator, begging Him that when it will be His good pleasure to call him, that it may please Him to collect his soul into the eternal Kingdom of Paradise.
Because after the soul the body is the most worthy thing at this time, the said testator has willed that when his soul has departed from his body, the latter will be carried to burial in the Church of the Convent of St. Francis of the said Salon, and between its great door and the altar of St. Martha, where he has willed that a tomb or monument be erected against the wall. He has willed that his said body be accompanied by four candles, of one livre each, and he has willed also that all his obsequies and funeral rites be conducted at the discretion of his executors hereinafter named.
He has also bequeathed, willed and ordered incontinent that six sous be given to each of thirteen beggars, one time only after his death. He has also bequeathed to the Friars of the Observance of Saint-Pierre-de-Canon one crown once only, payable incontinent after his death. He has also bequeathed to the Chapel of Notre Dame des Penitents-Blancs of the said Salon one crown payable once only incontinent after his death. He has also bequeathed to the Friars Minor of the Convent of St. Francis two crowns once only, payable incontinent after his death.
He has also bequeathed to Madeleine Besaudine, daughter of Louis Besaudine his first cousin, the sum of ten gold pistolets, which he has willed be given her when she becomes married, and not otherwise, so that if the said Madeleine dies before she is married, the said testator has willed that the present legacy be null and void.

And in the event the said Misses Madeleine, Anne and Diana, sisters, or one of them, die in pupillarity, or otherwise, without legitimate and natural heirs, in the said case he has substituted for each of the said Madeleine, Anne and Diana his heirs hereinafter named.
He has also bequeathed and left to the said Madame Anne Ponsarde, his beloved wife, the sum of four hundred gold crown-pistolets, which the said testator has willed be dispatched to the said Ponsarde incontinent after the end and death of the said testator. These four hundred crowns the said Ponsarde will enjoy as long as she lives a widow in the name of the said testator. In the event that the said Ponsarde comes to remarry, in the said event the said testator has willed that the said four hundred crowns be restored to his heirs hereinafter named. If the said Ponsarde does not come to remarry, in the said case the said testator has willed that she can bequeath and leave the said four hundred crowns to one of the children of the said testator, to whichever one or ones will seem proper to her, provided always that she cannot leave them to anyone other than the said children of the said testator.

And of the other movables of the house which will be necessary for her according to her station, three casks to hold her wine, and a little square bowl located in the cellar, which movables after the death of the said Ponsarde, or in case she remarries, he has willed to return to his heirs hereinafter named He has also bequeathed to Madeleine Besaudine, daughter of Louis Besaudine his first cousin, the sum of ten gold pistolets, which he has willed be given her when she becomes married, and not otherwise, so that if the said Madeleine dies before she is married, the said testator has willed that the present legacy be null and void.

In the event that the said Ponsarde comes to remarry, in the said event the said testator has willed that the said four hundred crowns be restored to his heirs hereinafter named. If the said Ponsarde does not come to remarry, in the said case the said testator has willed that she can bequeath and leave the said four hundred crowns to one of the children of the said testator, to whichever one or ones will seem proper to her, provided always that she cannot leave them to anyone other than the said children of the said testator.
Likewise he has bequeathed and bequeaths to the said Ponsarde his wife the use of and abode in a third of the entire house of the said testator, which third part the said Ponsarde will take as she chooses, and which she will enjoy as long as she lives as a widow in the name of the said testator. He has also bequeathed to the said Ponsarde a walnut chest, called the Great Chest, located in the hall of the house of the said testator, together with the little one next to it near the bed, as well as the bed located in the said hall, with its mattress cover, mattresses, spring, bolster, tapestry cover, and the curtains and drapes located in the said bed; also six winding sheets, four towels, twelve napkins, a half-dozen dishes, a half-dozen plates, a half-dozen porringers, two pitchers large and small, a cup and a salt cellar, all of pewter. And of the other movables of the house which will be necessary for her according to her station, three casks to hold her wine, and a little square bowl located in the cellar, which movables after the death of the said Ponsarde, or in case she remarries, he has willed to return to his heirs hereinafter named Likewise the said testator has bequeathed and bequeaths to the said Aime Ponsarde, his wife, all his robes, clothes, rings and jewels, so that she may take of them all that she wills and pleases.
The said testator has also left by preference legacy each and all of his books to that one of his sons who will profit most by study, and who will have drunk the most of the smoke of the lamp. These books, together with all the letters that will be found in the house of the said testator, the said testator has willed not to be catalogued at all, nor placed by their description, but to be tied up in parcels and baskets, until the one who is to have them is of age to take them, and that they be placed and locked up in a room of the house of the said testator.
He has also left by preference legacy to Cesar de Nostradamus his legitimate and natural son, and of the said Madame Ponsarde his common wife, the house in which the said testator lives. Likewise, he has left him by preference legacy the cape which the said testator has double-gilded with silver, and also the large chair of wood and iron, the legacy made to the said Ponsarde his wife remaining at all times in force and virtue, as long as she remains a widow in the name of the said testator. This house will remain in common undivided as regards usage between the said Cesar and Charles and Andre his brothers, until all the said brothers are of the age of twenty-five, after which time all of the said house will belong entirely to the said Cesar, to do with as he may please and will, there remaining in force and virtue at all times the legacy made to the said Ponsarde his mother, with regard to the said house.
He has also left by preference legacy and leaves by preference legacy to the said Charles de Nostradamus his legitimate and natural son, and of the said Ponsarde his common wife, the sum of one hundred gold crown-pistol-ets, once only, which hundred crowns the said Charles can take as his entire heritage, before leaving, when he reaches the age of twenty-five.
He has also left by preference legacy to the said Andre de Nostradamus, his legitimate and natural son, and of the said Ponsarde his common wife, the sum of one hundred gold crown-pistolets, once only, which hundred crowns the said Andre can take for his heritage before parting when he reaches, as is stated, the age of twenty-five.
Each and all of his other possessions, movable and immovable, present and future, rights, names, actions, debts he has left to his heirs at large, named from his mouth by their names and surnames, the said Cesar, Charles and Andre de Nostradamus the legitimate and natural children of himself and of Anne Ponsarde his common wife, in equal parts and portions interchangeable, if they come to die in pupillarity, or otherwise, without legitimate and natural heirs.
If the said Anne Ponsarde his wife should be pregnant, and give birth to one or two sons, he has made them heirs equally with the others, with similar substitution; and if she gives birth to one or two daughters, he has bequeathed to each of them the sum of five hundred crowns, with the same payment and substitution as the others.
The said testator has willed that his said sons and daughters cannot be married without the consent and approval of the said Ponsarde their mother, and of the nearest relatives of the said testator. In case all die without legitimate or natural heirs, he has substituted for the latter the said Misses Madeleine, Anne and Diana de Nostradamus their sisters, and daughters of the said testator.
The said testator, realizing that his estate consists mostly of cash and debts, has willed that the said cash and debts when collected be placed in the hands of two or three solvent merchants, for gain and honest profit.
And because he realizes his children to be of low age and in pupillarity, he has provided them with a guardian and testamentary administratrix of their persons and possessions, in the person of the said Anne Ponsarde, his wife, to whom they are especially entrusted. It is provided that she be held to keep a good and true inventory, and at all times she can be constrained from selling any movables or utensils of the house of the said heritage for as long as she lives a widow in the name of the said testator. She is forbidden to alienate movables in any way whatever while they are being held for and then divided amongst the said children, when they come of age.
This guardian will take and withdraw the profits from the said money that will be placed in the hands of the said merchants, and from the said profit she will provide for herself along with her children, to shoe them, clothe them and provide them with what will be necessary according to their station. Excepting the said fruits, she will be held to render an account thereof solely to provide for her said children as is stated.
The said testator expressly forbids his said heirs from demanding their share of the said heritage, as far as the money is concerned, before they reach the age of twenty-five. Concerning the legacies made to his said daughters, they will be taken from the funds of the money which will be placed in the hands of the said merchants, when they will come to be married, according to the said legacies.
The said testator wills furthermore that none of the brothers of the said testator can have any handling and charge of the said heritage. He has left the entire rule and government of it and of the persons of his said children to the said Madame Anne Ponsarde his wife.
He has made the executors of his present testament Pallamedes Marc, Esq., lord of Chateauneuf, and the Hon. Jacques Suffren, burgher of the said Salon, to whom, etc., abrupt, etc., and all incontinent the said Nostradamus has spoken and declared, in the presence of the witnesses hereinafter named, that he has in cash the sum of three thousand four hundred and forty-four crowns and ten sous, which he has exhibited and shown, actually, in the presence of the said witnesses above-named and in the species hereinafter specified. Firstly, rose nobles 36; simple ducats 101; Angelots 79; doubleducats 126; old crowns 4; gold lions in the form of old crowns 2; a crown of King Louis; a gold medal worth 2 crowns; German florins 8; imperials 10; marionettes 17; half-crowns 8; crowns 1,419; crown-pistolets 1,200; 3 pieces of gold said to be Portuguese, worth 36 crowns. So that all the said sums of cash together come to the said sum of 3,444 crowns and 10 sous. He ha^ also made it clear, by his book as well, that by obligations and notes of hand, and guarantees, he has debts to the sum of 1,600 crowns. These sums of cash have been placed in three coffers or chests located in the house of the said de Nostradamus, the keys of which have been entrusted, the one to Palla-medes Marc, lord of Chateauneuf, the other to the Hon. Jacques Suffren, burgher of the said Salon, which they have actually received, after the money had been placed in the said chests by themselves.
Done and passed in the said Salon, in the study of the house of Master Nostradamus, testator, in the presence of the honorables Joseph Raynaud burgher, Martin Manson consul, Jehan Allegret treasurer, Pallamedes Marc esquire lord of Chateauneuf, Guillaume Giraud, the noble Arnaud d'Ami-ranes, Jaumet Viguier, Esq., and Friar Vidal de Vidal, Superior of the Convent of St. Francis of the said Salon, witnesses named here, who are undersigned except for the said Raynaud.
Signed thus: michel nostradamus, martin manson consul; jehan allegret treasurer; friar superior vidal witness, balthezar d'amirane witness, P. marc witness, J. de viguier, guilhaume giraud. roche, notary.
Codicil of the Same
The year of Our Lord one thousand five hundred and sixty-six, the last day of the month of June. Know all present and to come by these presents that before and in the presence of myself, Joseph Roche, royal notary and sworn scrivener of the present town of Salon, Diocese of Aries, undersigned, and of the witnesses hereinafter named, there was present in person Master Michel Nostradamus, Doctor in medicine, Astrophile and Physician-in-Ordinary of the King.
The latter, considering and reducing in his memory, as he has said, has made his last nuncupative will taken and received by me, the said and undersigned notary in the present year on the seventeenth day of the present month of June, at which time among other things contained therein, he made his heirs Cesar, Charles and Andre de Nostradamus his children.
Because the right to codicile and to make his codicils after his will is legal and is permitted to everyone, so that he can add to or withdraw from his said will, or otherwise entirely abolish it, the said M. Michel de Nostradamus, wishing to make his codicil, and at present oodicilling, and adding to his said will, has bequeathed and bequeaths to the said Cesar de Nostradamus, his beloved son, his brass Astrolabe, together with his large gold ring with the corneline set in it and this above and beyond the preference legacy made in his favor by the said Nostradamus, his father, in his said will.
He has also bequeathed and bequeaths to Miss Madeleine de Nostradamus, his legitimate and natural daughter, beyond that which has been bequeathed to her by his said will, two walnut coffers which are in the study of the said codicillant, together with the clothes, rings and jewels that the said Miss Madeleine will find in the said coffers, without anyone being permitted to see or loolc at that which will be therein. Thus by the said legacy she has been made mistress of it incontinent after the death of the said codicillant. This legacy the said Mademoiselle can take as her authority, without being held back from taking them by the hand of another nor for the consent of anyone.
In each and all of the other things contained and declared in his said will the said M. Michel de Nostradamus codicillant has approved, ratified and confirmed and has willed and wills these to stand and to have always perpetual value and strength. This codicillant has willed and wills this present codicil, and others, and by right of all other last will, and by the best form and manner that can be attained, and has required and requires me the undersigned notary and the witnesses hereinafter named, to remember his said present codicil. These witnesses he has known well and named by their names. These witnesses have also known the said codicillant. The said M. de Nostradamus codicillant has willed the act to be done through them and by them, to whom by right it belongs, and by me the said and undersigned notary.

PREFACE BY M. NOSTRADAMUS TO HIS PROPHECIES This is a written letter to César.
Greetings and happiness to César Nostradamus my son
Your late arrival, César Nostredame, my son, has made me spend much time in constant nightly reflection so that I could communicate with you by letter and leave you this reminder, after my death, for the benefit of all men, of which the divine spirit has vouchsafed me to know by means of astronomy.
And since it was the Almighty's will that you were not born here in this region [Provence] and I do not want to talk of years to come but of the months during which you will struggle to grasp and understand the work I shall be compelled to leave you after my death: assuming that it will not be possible for me to leave you such [clearer] writing as may be destroyed through the injustice of the age [1555]. The key to the hidden prediction which you will inherit will be locked inside my heart.
Also bear in mind that the events here described have not yet come to pass, and that all is ruled and governed by the power of Almighty God, inspiring us not by bacchic frenzy nor by enchantments but by astronomical assurances: predictions have been made through the inspiration of divine will alone and the spirit of prophecy in particular.
On numerous occasions and over a long period of time I have predicted specific events far in advance, attributing all to the workings of divine power and inspiration, together with other fortunate or unfortunate happenings, foreseen in their full unexpectedness, which have already come to pass in various regions of the earth. Yet I have wished to remain silent and abandon my work because of the injustice not only of the present time [the Inquisition] but also for most of the future. I will not commit to writing.
Since governments, sects and countries will undergo such sweeping changes, diametrically opposed to what now obtains, that were I to relate events to come, those in power now - monarchs, leaders of sects and religions - would find these so different from their own imaginings that they would be led to condemn what later centuries will learn how to see and understand. Bear in mind also Our Saviour's words: Do not give anything holy to the dogs, nor throw pearls in front of the pigs lest they trample them with their feet and turn on you and tear you apart. For this reason I withdrew my pen from the paper, because I wished to amplify my statement touching the Vulgar Advent (1),
by means of ambiguous and enigmatic comments about future causes, even those closest to us and those I have perceived, so that some human change which may come to pass shall not unduly scandalize delicate sensibilities. The whole work is thus written in a nebulous rather than plainly prophetic form. So much so that,
You have hidden these things from the wise and the circumspect, that is from the mighty and the rulers, and you have purified those things for the small and the poor, and through Almighty God's will, revealed unto those prophets with the power to perceive what is distant and thereby to foretell things to come. For nothing can be accomplished without this faculty, whose power and goodness work so strongly in those to whom it is given that, while they contemplate within themselves, these powers are subject to other influences arising from the force of good. This warmth and strength of prophecy invests us with its influence as the sun's rays affect both animate and inanimate entities.
We human beings cannot through our natural consciousness and intelligence know anything of God the Creator's hidden secrets, For it is not for us to know the times or the instants, etc.
So much so that persons of future times may be seen in present ones, because God Almighty has wished to reveal them by means of images, together with various secrets of the future vouchsafed to orthodox astrology, as was the case in the past, so that a measure of power and divination passed through them, the flame of the spirit inspiring them to pronounce upon inspiration both human and divine. God may bring into being divine works, which are absolute; there is another level, that of angelic works; and a third way, that of the evildoers.
But my son, I address you here a little too obscurely. As regards the occult prophecies one is vouchsafed through the subtle spirit of fire, which the understanding sometimes stirs through contemplation of the distant stars as if in vigil, likewise by means of pronouncements, one finds oneself surprised at producing writings without fear of being stricken for such impudent loquacity. The reason is that all this proceeds from the divine power of Almighty God from whom all bounty proceeds.
And so once again, my son, if I have eschewed the word prophet, I do not wish to attribute to myself such lofty title at the present time, for whoever is calles a prophet now was once called a seer; since a prophet, my son, is properly speaking one who sees distant things through a natural knowledge of all creatures. And it can happen that the prophet bringing about the perfect light of prophecy may make manifest things both human and divine, because this cannot be done otherwise, given that the effects of predicting the future extend far off into time.
God's mysteries are incomprehensible and the power to influence events is bound up with the great expanse of natural knowledge, having its nearest most immediate origin in free will and describing future events which cannot be understood simply through being revealed. Neither can they be grasped through men's interpretations nor through another mode of cognizance or occult power under the firmament, neither in the present nor in the total eternity to come. But bringing about such an indivisible eternity through Herculean efforts (2), things are revealed by the planetary movements.
I am not saying, my son - mark me well, here - that knowledge of such things cannot be implanted in your deficient mind, or that events in the distant future may not be within the understanding of any reasoning being. Nevertheless, if these things current or distant are brought to the awareness of this reasoning and intelligent being they will be neither too obscure nor too clearly revealed.
Perfect knowledge of such things cannot be acquired without divine inspiration, given that all prophetic inspiration derives its initial origin from God Almighty, then from chance and nature. Since all these portents are produced impartially, prophecy comes to pass partly as predicted. For understanding created by the intellect cannot be acquired by means of the occult, only by the aid of the zodiac, bringing forth that small flame by whose light part of the future may be discerned.
Also, my son, I beseech you not to exercise your mind upon such reveries and vanities as drain the body and incur the soul's perdition, and which trouble our feeble frames. Above all avoid the vanity of that most execrable magic formerly reproved by the Holy Scriptures - only excepting the use of official astrology.
For by the latter, with the help of inspiration and divine revelation, and continual calculations, I have set down my prophecies in writing. Fearing lest this occult philosophy be condemned, I did not therefore wish to make known its dire import; also fearful that several books which had lain hidden for long centuries might be discovered, and of what might become of them, after reading them I presented them to Vulcan. [i.e. burned them]. And while he devoured them, the flame licking the air gave out such an unexpected light, clearer than that of an ordinary flame and resembling fire from some flashing cataclysm, and suddenly illumined the house as if it were caught in a furnace. Which is why I reduced them to ashes then, so that none might be tempted to use occult labours in searching for the perfect transmutation, whether lunar or solar, of incorruptible metals (3).
But as to that discernment which can be achieved by the aid of planetary scrutiny, I should like to tell you this. Eschewing any fantastic imaginings, you may through good judgement have insight into the future if you keep to the specific names of places that accord with planetary configurations, and with inspiration places and aspects yield up hidden properties, namely that power in whose presence the three times [past, present, and future] are understood as Eternity whose unfolding contains them all: for all whings nare naked and open.
That is why, my son, you can easily, despite your young brain, understand that events can be foretold naturally by the heavenly bodies and by the spirit of prophecy: I do not wish to ascribe to myself the title and role of prophet, but emphasize inspiration revealed to a mortal man whose perception is no further from heaven than the feet are from the earth. I cannot fail, err or be deceived, although I may be as great a sinner as anyone else upon this earth and subject to all human afflictions.
But after being surprised sometimes by day while in a trance, and having long fallen into the habit of agreeable nocturnal studies, I have composed books of prophecies, each containing one hundred astronomical quatrains, which I want to condense somewhat obscurely. The work comprises prophecies from today to the year 3797.
This may perturb some, when they see such a long timespan, and this will occur and be understood in all the fullness of the Republic (4); these things will be universally understood upon earth, my son. If you live the normal lifetime of man you will know upon your own soil, under your native sky, how future events are to turn out.
For only Eternal God knows the eternity of His light which proceeds from Him, and I speak frankly to those to whom His immeasurable, immense and incomprehensible greatness has been disposed to grant revelations through long, melancholy inspiration, that with the aid of this hidden element manifested by God, there are two principal factors which make up the prophet's intelligence.
The first is when the supernatural light fills and illuminates the person who predicts by astral science, while the second allows him to prophesy through inspired revelation, which is only a part of the divine eternity, whereby the prophet comes to assess what his divinatory power has given him through the grace of God and by a natural gift, namely, that what is foretold is true and ethereal in origin (5).
And such a light and small flame is of great efficacy and scope, and nothing less than the clarity of nature itself. The light of human nature makes the philosophers so sure of themselves that with the principles of the first cause they reach the loftiest doctrines and the deepest abysses. But my son, lest I venture too far for your future perception,
be aware that men of letters shall make grand and usually boastful claims about the way I interpreted the world, before the worldwide conflagration which is to bring so many catastrophes and such revolutions that scarcely any lands will not be covered by water (6), and this will last until all has perished save history and geography themselves. This is why, before and after these revolutions in various countries, the rains will be so diminished and such abundance of fire and fiery missiles shall fall from the heavens that nothing shall escape the holocaust. And this will occur before the last conflagration [1999].
For before war ends the [twentieth] century and in its final stages [1975-99] it will hold the century under its sway. Some countries will be in the grip of revolution (7) for several years, and others ruined for a still longer period. And now that we are in a republican era, with Almighty God's aid, and before completing its full cycle, the monarchy will return, then the Golden Age (8). For according to the celestial signs, the Golden Age shall return, and after all calculations, with the world near to an all-encompassing revolution
- from the time of writing 177 years 3 months 11 days (9) - plague, long famine and wars, and still more floods from now until the stated time. Before and after these, humanity shall several times be so severely diminished that scarcely anyone shall be found who wishes to take over the fields, which shall become free where they had previously been tied.
This will be after the visible judgement of heaven, before we reach the millennium which shall complete all. In the firmament of the eighth sphere, a dimension whereon Almighty God will complete the revolution, and where the constellations will resume their motion which will render the earth stable and firm, but only if He will remain unchanged for ever until His will be done.
This is in spite of all the ambiguous opinions surpassing all natural reason, expressed by Mahomet; which is why God the Creator, through the ministry of his fiery agents with their flames, will come to propose to our perceptions as well as our eyes the reasons for future predictions.
Signs of events to come must be manifested to whomever prophesies. For prophecy which stems from exterior illumination is part of that light and seeks to ally with it and bring it into being so that the part which seems to possess the faculty of understanding is not subject to a sickness of the mind.
Reason is only too evident. Everything is predicted by divine afflatus (10) and thanks to an angelic spirit inspiring the one prophesying, consecrating his predictions through divine unction. It also divests him of all fantasies by means of various nocturnal apparitions, while with daily certainty he prophesies through the science of astronomy, with the aid of sacred prophecy, his only consideration being his courage in freedom.
So come, my son, strive to understand what I have found out through my calculations which accord with revealed inspiration, because now the sword of death approaches us, with pestilence and war more horrible than there has ever been - because of three men's work - and famine. And this sword shall smite the earth and return to it often, for the stars confirm this upheaval and it is also written: I shall punish their injustices with iron rods, and shall strike them with blows.
For God's mercy will be poured forth only for a certain time, my son, until the majority of my prophecies are fulfilled and this fulfilment (sic) is complete. Then several times in the course of the doleful tempests the Lord shall say: Therefore I shall crush and destroy and show no mercy;
and many other circumstances shall result from floods and continual rain (11) of which I have written more fully in my other prophecies, composed at some length, not in a chronological sequence, in prose, limiting the places and times and exact dates so that future generations will see, while experiencing these inevitable events, how I have listed others in clearer language, so that despite their obscurities these things shall be understood: When the time comes for the removal of ignorance, the matter will be clearer still.
So in conclusion, my son, take this gift from your father M. Nostradamus, who hopes you will understand each prophecy in every quatrain herein. May Immortal God grant you a long life of good and prosperous happiness.
Salon, 1 March 1555

1. Le commun advènement, the Vulgar Advent, or the accession of the people to power, is generally taken by commentators to refer first to republicanism (via the French Revolution), then to its development towards and change into communism. (Tr.)
2. Nostradamus here compares his work, the twelve Centuries, to the Twelve Labours of Hercules, in order to stress their difficulty and importance.
3. Moon and Sun are constant symbols in Nostradamus of the republic and the monarchy respectively, hence the alchemic imagery also has a political aspect here.

Here is the Epistle to Henry II that was published as a preface to the last three centuries in 1568.
TO THE MOST INVINCIBLE MOST POWERFUL AND MOST CHRISTIAN HENRY, KING OF FRANCE THE SECOND: MICHEL NOSTRADAMUS, HIS VERY HUMBLE AND VERY OBEDIENT SERVANT AND SUBJECT, WISHES VICTORY AND HAPPINESS Ever since my long-beclouded face first presented itself before the immeasurable deity of your Majesty, O Most Christian and Most Victorious King, I have remained perpetually dazzled by that sovereign sight. I have never ceased to honor and venerate properly that date when I presented my- self before a Majesty so singular and so humane. I have searched for some occasion on which to manifest high heart and stout courage, and thereby obtain even greater recognition of Your Most Serene Majesty. But I saw how obviously impossible it was for me to declare myself.
While I was seized with this singular desire to be transported sudden- ly from my long-beclouded obscurity to the illuminating presence of the first monarch of the universe, I was also long in doubt as to whom I would dedicate these last three Centuries of my prophecies, making up the thou- sand. After having meditated for a long time on an act of such rash audacity, I have ventured to address Your Majesty. I have not been daunted like those mentioned by that most grave author Plutarch, in his Life of Lycurgus, who were so astounded at the expense of the offerings and gifts brought as sacrifices to the temples of the immortal gods of that age, that they did not dare to present anything at all. Seeing your royal splendor to be accompanied by such an incomparable humanity, I have paid my address to it and not as those Kings of Persia whom one could neither stand before nor ap- proach.
It is to a most prudent and most wise Prince that I have dedicated my nocturnal and prophetic calculations, which are composed rather out of a natural instinct, accompanied by a poetic furor, than according to the strict rules of poetry. Most of them have been integrated with astronomical calcu- lations corresponding to the years, months and weeks of the regions, coun- tries and most of the towns and cities of all Europe, including Africa and part of Asia, where most of all these coming events are to transpire. They are composed in a natural manner.
Indeed, someone, who would do well to blow his nose, may reply that the rhythm is as easy as the sense is difficult. That, O Most Humane king, is because most of the prophetic quatrains are so ticklish that there is no making way through them, nor is there any interpreting of them.
Nevertheless, I wanted to leave a record in writing of the years, towns, cities and regions in which most of the events will come to pass, even those of the year 1585 and of the year 1606, reckoning from the present time, which is March 14, 1557, and going far beyond to the events which will take place at the beginning of the seventh millenary, when, so far as my pro- found astronomical calculations and other knowledge have been able to make out, the adversaries of Jesus Christ and his Church will begin to multi- ply greatly.
I have calculated and composed all during choice hours of well-dis- posed days, and as accurately as I could, all when Minerva was free and not unfavorable. I have made computations for events over almost as long a period to come as that which has already passed, and by these they will know in all regions what is to happen in the course of time, just as it is writ- ten, with nothing superfluous added, although some may say, There can be no truth entirely determined concerning the future.
It is quite true, Sire, that my natural instinct has been inherited from my forebears, who did not believe in predicting, and that this is natural in- stinct has been adjusted and integrated with long calculations. At the same time, I freed my soul, mind and heart of all care, solicitude and vexation. All of these prerequisites for presaging I achieved in part by means of the brazen tripod.
There are some who would attribute to me that which is not mine at all. The eternal God alone, who is the thorough searcher of humane hearts, pious, just and merciful, is the true judge, and it is to him I pray to defend me from the calumny of evil men. These evil ones, in their slanderous way, would likewise want to inquire how all your most ancient progenitors, the Kings of France, have cured the scrofula, how those of other nations have cured the bite of snakes, how those of yet other nations have had a certain instinct for the art of divination and still others which would be too long to recite here.
Notwithstanding those who cannot contain the malignity of the evil spirit, as time elapses after my death, my writings will have more weight than during my lifetime. Should I, however, have made any errors in my calculation of dates, or prove unable to please everybody, I beg that your more than Imperial Majesty will forgive me. I protest before God and his Saints that I do not propose to insert any writings in this present Epistle that will be contrary to the true Catholic faith, whilst consulting the as- tronomical calculations to the best of my abilty.
Such is the extent of time past, subject to correction by the most learned judgment, that the first man, Adam, came 1,242 years before Noah ( not reckoning by such Gentile calculations as Varro used, but simply by the Holy Scriptures, as best my weak understanding and astronomical calcu- lations can interpret them.) About 1,080 years after Noah and the universal flood came Abraham, who, according to some, was a first-rate astrologer and invented the Chaldean alphabet. About 515 or 516 years later came Moses, and from his time to that of David about 570 years elapsed. From the time of David to that of out Savior and Redeemer, Jesus Christ, born of the unique Virgin, 1,350 year elapsed, according to some chronographs. Some may object that this calculation cannot be true, because it differs from that of Eusebius. From the timeof the human redemption to the detestable heresy of the Saracens about 621 years elapsed. From this one can easily add up the amount of time gone by.
Although my calculations may not hold good for all nations, they have, however, been determined by the celestial movements, combined with the emotion, handed down to me by my forebears, which comes over me at certain hours. Byt the danger of the times, O Most Serene King, requires that such secrets should not be bared except in enigmatic sentences having, however, only one sense and meaning, and nothing ambiguous or amphibolog- ical inserted. Rather they are under a cloudy obscurity, with a natural infusion not unloke the creation of the world, according to the calculation and Punic Chronicle of Joel: I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh and your sons and daughters will prophesy. But such Prophecy proceeded from the mouth of the Holy Ghost who was the sovereign and eternal power, together with the heavens, and caused some of them to predict great and marvelous events.
As for myself, I would never claim such a title, never, please God. I readily admit that all proceeds from God and render to Him thanks, honor and immortal praise. I have mixed therewith no divination coming from fate. All from God and nature, and for the most part integrated with celestial movements. It is much like seeing in a burning mirror, with clouded vision, the great events, sad, prodigious and calamitous events that in due time will fall upon the principal worshippers. First, upon the temples of God; second- ly, upon those who, sustained by the earth, approach such a decadence. Also a thousand other calamitous events which will be known to happen in due time.
For God will take notice of the long barrenness of the great dame, who thereupon will conceive two principal children. But she will be in danger, and the female to whom she will have given birth will also, because of the temerity of the age, be in danger of death in her eighteenth year, and will be unable to live beyond her thirty-sixth year. She will leave three males, and one female, and of these two will not have had the same father.
There will be great differences between the three brothers, and then there will be such great co-operation and agreement between them that the three and four parts of Europe will tremble. The youngest of them will sus- tain and augment the Christian monarchy, and under him sects will be elevated, and suddenly cast down, Arabs will be driven back, kingdoms united and new laws promulgated.
The oldest one will rule the land whose escutcheon is that of the furious crowned lions with their paws resting upon intrepid arms.
The one second in age, accompanied by the Latins, will penetrate far, until a second furious and trembling path has been beaten to the Great St. Bernard Pass. From there he will descend to mount the Pyrenees, which will not, however, be transferred to the French crown. And this third one will cause a great inundation of human blood, and for a long time Lent will not include March.
The daughter will be given for the preservation of the Christian Church. Her lord will fall into the pagan sect of the new infidels. Of her two children, one will be faithful to the Catholic Church, the other an infidel.
The unfaithful son, who, to his great confusion and later repentance, will want to ruin her, will have three widely scattered regions, namely, the Roman, Germany and Spain, which will set up diverse sects by armed force. The 50th to the 52th degree of latitude will be left behind.
And all will render the homage of ancient religions to the region of Europe north of the 48th parallel. The latter will have trembled first in vain timidity but afterwards the regions to its west, south and east will tremble. But the nature of their power will be such that what has been brought about by concord and union will prove insuperable by warlike conquests.
In nature they will be equal, but very different in faith.
After this the barren Dame, of greater power than the second, will be received by two of the nations. First, by them made obstinate by the onetime masters of the universe. Second, by the latter themselves.
The third people will extend their forces towards the circuit of the East of Europe where, in the Pannonias, they will be overwhelmed and slaughtered. By sea they will extend their Myrmidons and Germans to Adriatic Sicily. But they will succumb wholly and the Barbarian sect will be greatly afflicted and driven out by all the Latins.
Then the great Empire of the Antichrist will begin where once was Attila's empire and the new Xerxes will descend with great and countless numbers, so that the coming of the Holy Ghost, proceeding from the 48th degree, will make a transmigration, chasing out the abomination of the Christian Church, and whose reign will be for a time and to the end of time.
This will be preceded by a solar eclipse more dark and gloomy than any since the creation of the world, except that after the death and passion of Jesus Christ. And it will be in the month of October than the great translation will be made and it will be such that one will think the gravity of the earth has lost its natural movement and that it is to be plunged into the abyss of perpetual darkness.
In the spring there will be omens, and thereafter extreme changes, reversals of realms and mighty earthquakes. These will be accompanied by the procreation of the new Babylon, miserable daughter enlarged by the abomination of the first holocaust. It will last for only seventy-three years and seven months.
Then there will issue from the stock which had remained barren for so long, proceeding from the 50th degree, one who will renew the whole Christian Church. A great place will be established, with union and concord between some of the children of opposite ideas, who have been seperated by diverse realms. And such will be the peace that the instigator and promoter of military factions, born of the diversity of religions, will remain chained to the deepest pit. And the kingdom of the Furious One, who counterfeits the sage, will be united.
The countries, towns, cities, realms and provinces which will have abandoned their old customs to gain liberty, but which will in fact have enthralled themselves even more, will secretly have wearied of their liberty. Faith lost in their perfect religion, they will begin to strike to the left, only to return to the right. Holiness, for a long time overcome, will be replaced in accordance with the earliest writings.
Thereafter the great dog, the biggest of curs, will go forth and destroy all, the same old crimes being perpetrated again. Temples will be set up again as in ancient times, and the priest will be restored to his original position and he will begin his whoring and luxury, and will commit a thousand crimes.
At the eve of another desolation, when she is atop her most high and sublime dignity, some potentates and warlords will confront her, and take away her two swords, and leave her only the insignia, whose curvature attracts them. The people will make him go to the right and will not wish to submit themselves to those of the opposite extreme with the hand in acute position, who touch the ground, and want to drive spurs into them.
And hereupon it is that there is born of a branch long sterila one who will deliver the people of the world from this benevolent slavery to which they had voluntary submitted. He will put himself under the protection of Mars, stripping Jupiter of all his honors and dignities, and establish himself in the free city in another scant Mesopotamia. The chief and governor will be cast out from the middle and hung up, ignorant of the conspiracy of one of the conspirators with the second Thrasibulus, who for a long time will have directed all this.
Then the impurities and abominations, with a great shame, will be brought out and manifested in the shadows of the veiled light, and will cease towards the end of the change in reign. The chiefs of the Church will be backward in the love of God, and several of them will apostatize from the true faith. Of the three sects, that which is in the middle, because of its own partisans, will be thrown a bit into decadence. The first one will be exterminated throughout all Europe and most of Africa by the third one, making use of the poor in spirit who, led by madmen to libidinous luxury, will adulterate
The supporting common people will rise up and chase out the adherents of the legislators. From the way realms will have been weakened by the Easterners, it will seem that God the Creator has loosed Satan from the prisons of hell to give birth to the great Dog and Doham, who will make such an abominable breach in the Churches that neither the reds nor the whites without eyes or hands will know what to make of it, and their power will be taken from them.
Then will commence a persecution of the Churches the like of which was never seen. Meanwhile, such a plague will arise that more than two thirds of the world will be removed. One will be unable to ascertain the true owners of fields and houses, and weeds growing in the streets of cities will rise higher than the knees. For the clergy there will be but utter desolation. The warlords will usurp what is returned from the City of the Sun, from Malta and the Isles of Hyères. The great chain of the port which wakes its name from the marine ox will be opened.
And a new incursion will be made by the maritime shores, wishing to deliver the Sierra More¤a from the first Mahometan recapture. Their assaults will not all be in vain, and the place which was once the abode of Abraham will be assaulted by persons who hold the Jovialists in veneration. And this city of "Achem" will be surrounded and assailed on all sides by a most powerful force of warriors. Their maritime forces will be weakened by the Westerners, and great desolation will fall upon this realm. Its greatest cities will be depopulated and those who enter will fall under the vengeance of the wrath of God.
The sepulchre, for long an object of such great veneration, will remain in the open, exposed to the sight of the heavens, the Sun and the Moon. The holy place will be converted into a stable for a herd large and small, and used for profane purposes. Oh, what a calamitous affliction will pregnant women bear at this time.
For hereupon the principal Eastern chief will be vanquished by the Northerners and Westerners, and most of his people, stirred up, will be put to death, overwhelmed or scattered. His children, offspring of many women, will be imprisoned. Then will be accomplished the prophecy of the Royal Prophet, Let him hear the groaning of the captives, that he might deliver the children of those doomed to die.
What great oppression will then fall upon the Princes and Governors of Kingdoms, especially those which will be maritime and Eastern, whose tongues will be intermingled with all others: the tongue of the Latins, and of the Arabs, via the Phoenicians. And all these Eastern Kings will be chased, overthrown and exterminated, but not altogether, by means of the forces of the Kings of the North, and because of the drawing near of our age through the three secretly united in the search for death, treacherously laying traps for one another. This renewed Triumvirate will last for seven years, and the renown of this sect will extend arount the world. The sacrifice of the hole and immaculate Wafer will be sustained.
Then the Lords of "Aquilon" [the North], two in number, will be victorious over the Easterners, and so great a noise and bellicose tumult will they make amongst them that all the East will tremble in terror of these brothers, yet not brothers, of "Aquilon" [the North].
By this discourse, Sire, I present these predictions almost with confusion, especially as to when they will take place. Furthermore, the chronology of time which follows conforms very little, if at all, with that which has already been set forth. Yet it was determined by astronomy and other sources, including Holy Scriptures, and thus could not err. If I had wanted to date each quatrain, I could have done so. But this would not have been agreeable to all, least of all to those interpreting them, and was not to be done until Your Majesty granted me full power to do so, lest calumniators be furnished with an opportunity to injure me.
Anyhow, I count the years from the creation of the world to the birth of Noah as 1,506, and from the birth of Noah to the completion of the Ark, at the time of the universal deluge, as 600 ( let the years be solar, or lunar, or a mixture of the ten ) I hold that the Sacred Scriptures use solar years. And at the end of these 600 years, Noah enetered the Ark to be saved from the deluge. This deluge was universal, and lasted one year and two months. And 295 years elapsed from the end of the flood to the birth of Abraham, and 100 from then till the birth of Isaac. And 60 years later Jacob was born. 130 years elapsed between the time he entered Egypt and the time he came out. Between the entry of Jacob into Egypt and the exodus, 430 years passed. From the exodus to the building of the Temple by Solomon in the fourth year of his reign, 480 yearss. According ot the calculations of the Sacred Writings, it was 490 years from the building of the Temple to the time of Jesus Christ. Thus, this calculation of mine, collected from the holy writ, comes to about 4,173 years and 8 months, more or less. Because there is such a diversity of sects, I will not go beyond Jesus Christ.
I have calculated the present prophecies according to the order of the chain which contains its revolution, all by astronomical doctrine modified by my natural instinct. After a while, I found the time when Saturn turns to enter on April 7 till August 25, Jupiter on June 14 till October 7, Mars from April 17 to June 22, Venus from April 9 to May 22, Mercury from February 3 to February 24. After that, from June 1 to June 24, and from September 25 to October 16, Saturn in Capricorn, Jupiter in Aquarius, Mars in Scorpio, Venus in Pisces, Mercury for a month in Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces, the Moon in Aquarius, the Dragon's head in Libra: its tail in opposition following a conjunction of Jupiter and Mercury with a quadrature of Mars and Mercury, and the Dragon's head coinciding with a conjunction of the Sun and Jupiter. And the year without an eclipse peaceful.
But not everywhere. It will mark the commencement of what will long endure. For beginning with this year the Christian Church will be persecuted more fiercely than it ever was in Africa, and this will last up to the year 1792, which they will believe to mark a renewal of time.
After this the Roman people will begin to re-establish themselves, chasing away some obscure shadows and recovering a bit of their ancient glory. But this will not be without great division and continual changes. Thereafter Venice will raise its wings very high in great force and power, not far short of the might of ancient Rome.
At that time the great sails of Byzantium, allied with the Ligurians and through the support and power of "Aquilon" [the Northern Realm], will impede them so greatly that the two Cretans will be unable to maintain their faith. The arks built by the Warriors of ancient times will accompany them to the waves of Neptune. In the Adriatic great discord will arise, and that which will have been united will be seperated. To a house will be reduced that which was, and is, a great city, including "Pampotamia" and "Mesopotamia" of Europe at 45, and others of 41, 42 and 37 degrees.
It will be at this time and in these countries that the infernal power will set the power of its adversaries against the Church of Jesus Christ. This will constitute of the second Antichrist, who will persecute that Church and its true Vicar, by means of the power of three temporal kings who in their ignorance will be seduced by tongues which, in the hands of the madmen, will cut more than any sword.
The said reign of the Antichrist will last only to the death of him who was born at the beginning of the age and of the other one of Lyon, associated with the elected one of the House of Modena and of Ferrara, maintained by the Adriatic Ligurians and the proximity of great Sicily. Then the Great St. Bernard will be passed.
The Gallic Ogmios will be accompanied by so great a number that the Empire of his great law will extend very far. For some time thereafter the blood of the Innocent will be shed profusely by the recently elevated guilty ones. Then, because of great floods, the memory of things contained in these instruments will suffer incalculable loss, even letters. This will happen to the "Aquiloners" [the Northern People] by the will of God.
Once again Satan will be bound, universal peace will be established among men, and the Church of Jesus Christ will be delivered from all tribulations, although the Philistines would like to mix in the honey of malice and their pestilent seduction. This will be near the seventh millenary, when the sanctuary of Jesus Christ will no longer be throdden down by the infidels who come from "Aquilon" [the North]. The world will be approaching a great conflagration, although, according to my calculations in my prophecies, the course of time runs much further.
In the Epistle that some years ago I dedicated to my son, César Nostradamus, I declared some points openly enough, without presage. But here, Sire, are included several great and marvelous events which those to come after will see.
During this astrological supputation, harmonized with the Holy Scriptures, the persecution of the Ecclesiastical folk will have its origin in the power of the Kings of "Aquilon" [the North], united with the Easterners. This persecution will last for eleven years, or somewhat less, for then the chief King of "Aquilon" will fall.
Thereupon the same thing will occur in the South, where for the space of three years the Church people will be persecuted even more fiercely through the Apostatic seduction of one who will hold all the absolute power in the Church militant. The hole people of God, the observer of his law, will be persecuted fiercely and such will be their affliction that the blood of the true Ecclesiastics will flow everywhere.
One of the horrible temporal Kings will be told by his adherents, as the ultimate in praise, that he has shed more of human blood of Innocent Ecclesiastics than anyone else could have spilled of wine. This King will commit incredible crimes against the Church. Human blood will flow in the public streets and temples, like water after an impetuous rain, coloring the nearby rivers red with blood. The ocean itself will be reddened by another naval battle, such that one king will say to another, Naval battles have caused the sea to blush.
Then, in this same year, and in those following, there will ensue the most horrible pestilence, made more stupendous by the famine which will have preceded it. Such great tribulations will never have occurred since the first foundation of the Christian Church. It will cover all Latin regions, and will leave traces in some countries of the Spanish.
Thereupon the third King of "Aquilon" [the North], hearing the lament of the people of his principal title, will raise a very mighty army and, defying the tradition of his predecessors, will put almost everything back in its proper place, and the great Vicar of the hood will be put back in his former state. But desolated, and then abandoned by all, he will turn to find the Holy of Holies destroyed by paganism, and the old and new Testaments thrown out and burned.
After that Antichrist will be the infernal prince again, for the last time. All the Kingdoms of Christianity will tremble, even those of the infidels, for the space of twenty-five years. Wars and battles will be more grievous and towns, cities, castles and all other edifices will be burned, desolated and destroyed, with great effusion of vestal blood, violations of married woman and widows, and sucking children dashed and broken against the walls of towns. By means of Satan, Prince Infernal, so may evils will be commited that nearly all the world will find itself undone and desolated. Before these events, some rare birds will cry in the air: Hui, Hui [Today, today] and some time later will vanish.
After this has endured for a long time, there will be almost renewed another reign of Saturn, and golden age. Hearing the affliction of his people, God the Creator will command that Satan be cast into the depths of the bottomless pit, and bound there. Then a universal peace will commence between God and man, and Satan will remain bound for around a thousand years, and then all unbound.
All these figures represent the just integration of Holy Scriptures with visible celestial bodies, namely, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and others conjoined, as can be seen at more length in some of the quatrains. I would have calculated more profoundly and integrated them even further, Most Serene King, but for the fact that some given to censure would raise difficulties. Therefore I withdraw my pen and seek nocturnal repose.
Many events, most powerful of all Kings, of the most astounding sort are to transpire soon, but I neither could nor would fit them all into this epistle; but in order to comprehend certain horrible facts, a few must be set forth. So great is your grandeur and humanity before men, and your piety before the gods, that you alone seem worthy of the great title of the Most Christian King, and to whom the highest authority in all religion should be deferred.
But I shall only beseech you, Most Clement King, by this singular and prudent humanity of yours, to understand rather the desire of my heart, and the sovereign wish I have to obey Your Most Serene Majesty, ever since my eyes approached your solar splendour, than the grandeur of my labor can attain to or acquire. From Salon, this 27th of June, 1558.

This Saturday, the 29th of November, 1561, I received your letters sent from Paris the 12th of October of this year. I seem to note that your letters are full of the offense, quarrel and indignation that you have against me for I know not what reason.
You complain that when I was in Paris and went off to pay reverence to Her Majesty the Queen, you lent me two rose nobles and twelve crowns, which is just, fair and true, and with that you state what was so and remains perpetually so, that I did not know you nor you me, other than by reputation.
I would have you understand. Sir, that immediately after I had arrived at the court and had spoken for a short time to Her Majesty the Queen, I especially mentioned to her the nobility and more than imperial liberality with which you had made me the loan. And this was not the only time that I spoke to her about this matter; I assure you that it was mentioned again on four later occasions. I am grieved that you hold such a poor opinion of me as to think I am so ignorant as not to know that benefits unwisely conferred are considered misdeeds.
But from your letter I recognize that you are speaking in anger and indignation and, so it seems to me, without knowing much about me.
Now with regard to what you say you have sent me through a certain captain from Aix. Rest assured. Sir, that I have never received any letter from you other than this one, that I firmly believed that as a result of what I had said to Her Majesty the Queen you had been satisfied. But with trifles, etc.
But to come to the point. It is just and very reasonable that you be satisfied. You must understand that in this matter and in all others I stand as a man of good character not only towards you but also towards all others. As indeed you showed yourself to be truly noble and heroic.
I thought my going to the court was by command. But there were also counterorders from others not to go there at all, and this was not without asking you and satisfying you fully.
Recently, there was with Monsieur ie Baron de la Garde a young gentleman page who professed to be your stepson, so that I often spoke to him and asked him for news of you, in order to be fully satisfied about everything.
But of this matter he never spoke to me, although very often I mentioned it to him.
With regard to what you wrote, that I left Paris snubbing my friend, rest assured that, though you may be pleased thus to write, I did not think in that fashion, that it is not in my nature, that I do not know how to insult, nor of insult, and that such imperfections are not mine and do not belong to me but are quite alien to my nature, quality and condition.
As a matter of fact, as a fine reward for having gone to court, I became sick, whereupon His Majesty the King sent me one hundred crowns. The Queen sent me thirty. There you have a fine sum for having come two hundred leagues: having spent a hundred crowns, I made thirty crowns out of it.
But that's beside the point. After I had returned to Paris from Saint-Germain, a very striking great lady, whose identity I do not know, but who by her appearance seemed to be a very virtuous and honorable lady, came to see me the night I returned and spoke to me for some time, I couldn't say of what, and took leave quite late.
The next morning she came to see me again. After Her Ladyship had conversed with me about her affairs with more intimacy than before, she finally told me that the Gentlemen from the Justice of Paris intended to find me in order to question me about the science of which I made use and how I predicted what I did. I told her by way of reply that they need not take the trouble to come on such a mission, that I would save them the trouble and that I had planned to leave the next morning for return to Provence, which indeed I did.
That this would disappoint you did not occur to me at the time at all. But although you can have as poor an opinion of me as you please, I am certain you will know it soon. And I am very sorry that you did not write to me sooner so that you might have been given satisfaction sooner. And I tell you that though I see you only by letter and do not cultivate your acquaintance, yet when I shut my eyes I recall your physical appearance, your singular honesty, goodness, faith, probity, learning and erudition.
But you will consider that all these words that I write you I consider sufficient to satisfy you. Not so. I send you herewith two little notes. If it will please you to make use of them, I feel sure that as soon as you will have delivered them your money will be delivered to you promptly. One is to Mademoiselle de Saint-Remy and the other to Monsieur de Fizes. And I beg that you will not hesitate to deliver them. For I will expect word from both of having received them, so that there will be no mistake. And there are several others in Paris and at the court who would not refuse me a much greater sum.
If ill any way in the world I can be of service to you, I beseech you very emphatically that you will be pleased to make use of me, whether it be for yourself or for any of your friends. You may rest assured that you can rely on me as much as on any man in this world.
And were it not for the tumults which take place daily because of religion, I would be on the road, and this would not take place without my inquiring of you fully.
I await your letters most anxiously, being certain your reply will tell me you are satisfied. I hope to go to court both to set my son Caesar Nostradamus at his studies and to satisfy several personages who beg me to come there, which I will do.
However, I beg you to write me your news as soon as possible. And I will not fail to employ in your favor all the services of which I am capable and demonstrate more fully by deed how affectionately I recommend myself, Monsieur de Morel, to your good grace.
Begging God that he give you health, long life, increase of honor and the fruition of your noble and heroic virtue, From Salon de Craux in Provence this last day of October [sic!], 1561, Your humble and obedient servant, ready
to obey you, M. nostradamus
P. S. Sir, I send you the two [notes], although I am sure that, upon your first demand with the first one, you will not fail to be appropriately satisfied.
Write to me as fully as it may please you. Your humble and obedient servant
ready to obey you M. nostradamus

To my venerable Lords Messieurs the Canons of the Cathedral Church of the most ancient city of Orange
venerable lords: with respect to your inquiry concerning the specified and enumerated sacrilegious thefts, concerning theft and hoard hidden but not concealed.
According to the astronomical figure drawn above, you will see fully that it shows that the theft of the sacred objects has been perpetrated with the collusion of two of your brothers of the Church� indeed, ones who have previously extended to you private counsel on several occasions as to what had befallen your silver. One of them gave his opinion that it had been taken to Avignon, the other that it had been taken some other place. Both were of the opinion that it had been sold, as indeed was their intention.
Booty to be divided among canons who are at present like soldiers. This opinion was not rendered as good and godly and commendable. Several would not agree with it, although some others were pleased though in the end not agreed on one point or the other. But all was halted as the silver was put in the house of one of your people and locked up; which was not done agreeably to some. One opinion held that it was necessary to melt it down into bars and sell it, storing it for the present in the home of one of them.
Then two or three came forth to say that this could not possibly be for scarcely any length of time, since the Roman Church would be involved in most sinister events. It was locked up, although with but two of them remaining of the opinion that it should be sold melted dovm and plotting secretly with one another.
There were only three, and they brothers of the Church, and they have ravished that which was without fault with the intention of stealing everything and not without the collusion of the custodian, for you entrusted the sheep to the wolf. As indeed Jesus Christ for some time committed His flock to long plunderings of His Church, also under the shadow of faith and of probity, as you have committed your silver, sacred and dedicated as it is to the sacred ornamentation of your temple, donated in ages past by Kings, monarchs, lordly sovereigns of the earth as true observers of the faith and of religion.
But note, my venerable Lords, that unless by those of your company who are not without knowledge of the day and the night when the theft of the sacred objects was perpetrated there be restored and replaced in full what was stolen, not only in its place and into the hands of those entrusted with its custody, but also returned into the temple, remembering the silver chalice, there will fall upon them the greatest misfortune that ever befell anyone, on them and on their family; and furthermore, pestilence will approach your city and within its ramparts as great as ever covered your city or was contained within your walls, and let them not object to the above. Priests are like comrades of propitious gods.
But they will see, as it is said, that God takes his vengeance on those who have profaned His holy temple and who have stolen what in ages past was donated by the observers of the Christian religion.
Therefore, let this letter of mine be read in the presence of all your people, as if not: opened until all are present, and then without fail the faces of those in collusion will change with great shame and confusion that they will be unable to repress.
Therefore, keep this my letter as a complete witness of the truth, time to come to bear witness to it, and rest assured, my venerable Lords, if that which was stolen is not brought back one way or another, that they will die the most miserable death, more lingering and more violent and of more inconceivable intensity than ever before occurred�unless everything is restored and replaced in its ancient repository, and thus you will find it to be.
I am grieved that the sheep has been entrusted to the wolf, as much to take note of it as to devise what message to send about it.
What I write you is according to astronomical judgment and, I protest, lacking in offense to anyone in this world. I am human and can err, be wrong and be deceived; nevertheless, be there anyone in your city familiar with the astronomical doctrine extending to the judicial, by the figure let him judge if he understands not that my saying contains the truth.
Have no fear whatever, sirs, but that shortly all will be found, and that if it be not thus, rest assured that their unhappy destiny approaches for those who have perpetrated sacrilege by their execrable crime.
Further I cannot write you for the present. God watch over you to restore you to your first state. Although there are several who would be displeased if they had to wear again the amice, several of them near you, and one there is who will not want to find himself accompanied by another of the same type. God guard you from evil. From Salon this 4th of February, 1562.

----------Hier zijn de eigenlijke versen---------
CENTURIE I
This is the first Centurie by Nostradamus, first printed on May 4, 1555 in Lyons by Macé Bonhomme. This first edition contained the Preface to his son César and 353 quatrains. A reprint was done by Bareste in 1840, unfortunately the original was lost.
I.
ESTANT assis de nuict secret estude, Seul reposé sur la selle d'ærain: Flambe exigue sortant de solitude, Fait prosperer qui n'est à croire vain.
Sitting alone at night in secret study; it is placed on the brass tripod. A slight flame comes out of the emptiness and makes successful that which should not be beleived in vain.
II.
La vierge en main mise au milieu de Branches De l'onde il moulle & le l'imbe & le pied: Vn peur & voix fremissent par les manches: Splendeur diuine. Le diuin pres s'assied.
The wand in the hand is placed in the middle of the tripod's legs. With water he sprinkles both the hem of his garment and his foot. A voice, fear: he trembles in his robes. Divine splendour; the god sits nearby.
III.
Quand la lictiere du tourbillon versee, Et seront faces de leurs manteaux couuers, La republique par gens nouveaux vexee, Lors blancs & rouges iureront à l'enuers.
When the litters are overturned by the whirlwind and faces are covered by cloaks, the new republic will be troubled by its people. At this time the reds and the whites will rule wrongly.
IV.
Par l'vnivers sera faict vn monarque, Qu'en paix & vie ne sera longuement: Lors se perdra la piscature barque, Sera regie en plus grand detriment.
In the world there will be made a king who will have little peace and a short life. At this time the ship of the Papacy will be lost, governed to its greatest detriment.
V.
Chassez seront pour faire long combat, Par les pays seront plus fort greuez: Bourg & cité auront plus grand debat. Carcas. Narbonne auront coeur esprouuez.
They will be driven away for a long drawn out fight. The countryside will be most grievously troubled. Town and country will have greater struggle. Carcassonne and Narbonne will have their hearts tried.

Tard arriué l'execution faicte, Le vent contraire lettres au chemin prinses: Les coniurez XIIIJ. d'vne secte, Par le Rousseau senez les entreprinses.
Arrived too late, the act has been done. The wind was against them, letters intercepted on their way. The conspirators were fourteen of a party. By Rousseau shall these enterprises be undertaken.
VIII.
Combien de fois prinse cité solitaire Seras changeant ses loix barbares & vaines: Ton mal s'aproche. Plus seras tributaires Le grand Hardie recouurira tes veines.
How often will you be captured, O city of the sun ? Changing laws that are barbaric and vain. Bad times approach you. No longer will you be enslaved. Great Hadrie will revive your veins.

De l'Orient viendra le coeur Punique Fascher Hadrie, & les hoires Romulides, Acompagne de la classe Libique, emples Melites & proches Isles vuides.
From the Orient will come the African heart to trouble Hadrie and the heirs of Romulus. Accompanied by the Libyan fleet the temples of Malta and nearby islands shall be deserted.

Serpens transmis en la cage de fer, Ou les enfans septains du Roy sont pris: Les vieux & peres sortirons bas de l'enfer, Ains mourir voir de fruict mort & cris.
A coffin is put into the vault of iron, where seven children of the king are held. The ancestors and forebears will come forth from the depths of hell, lamenting to see thus dead the fruit of their line.

The motion of senses, heart, feet and hands will be in agreement between Naples, Lyon and Sicily. Swords fire, floods, then the noble Romans drowned, killed or dead because of a weak brain.
XII.
Dans peu dira fauce brute fragile De bas en haut esleué promptement: Puis en istant desloyale & labile, Qui de Veronne aura gouuernement.
There will soon be talk of a treacherous man, who rules a short time, quickly raised from low to high estate. He will suddenly turn disloyal and volatile. This man will govern Verona.
XIII.
Les exilez par ire, haine intestine, Feront au Roy grand coniuration: Secret mettront ennemis par la mine, Et ses vieux siens contre eux sedition.
Through anger and internal hatreds, the exiles will hatch a great plot against the king. Secretly they will place enemies as a threat, and his own old (adherents) will find sedition against them.
XIV.
De gent esclaue chansons, chants & requestes, Captifs par Princes & Seigneurs aux prisons: A l'aduenir par idiots sans testes, Seront receus par diuines oraisons.
From the enslaved populace, songs, chants and demands, while Princes and Lords are held captive in prisons. These will in the future by headless idiots be received as divine prayers

Mars nous menasse par sa force bellique, Septante fois fera le sang espandre: Auge & ruyne de l'Ecclesiastique Et plus ceux qui d'eux rien voudront entendre.
Mars threatens us with the force of war and will cause blood to be spilt seventy times. The clergy will be both exalted and reviled moreover, by those who wish to learn nothing of them.

XXXVII.
Vn peu deuant que le Soleil s'absconde, Conflict donné, grand peuple dubiteux: Profligez, port marin ne faict response, Pont & sepulchre en deux estranges lieux
Shortly before sun set, battle is engaged. A great nation is uncertain. Overcome, the sea port makes no answer, the bridge and the grave both in foreign places.
XXXVIII.
Le Sol & l'Aigle au victeur paroistront, Response vaine au vaincu l'on asseure: Par cor ne crys harnois n'arresteront, Vindicte paix par mors si acheue à l'heure.
The Sun and the Eagle will appear to the victor. An empty answer assured to the defeated. Neither bugle nor shouts will stop the soldiers. Liberty and peace, if achieved in time through death.
XXXIX.
De nuict dans lict le supresme estranglé, Pour trop auoir seiourné blond esleu. Par trois l'Empire subrogé exanclé, A mort mettra carte, & pacquet ne leu.
At night the last one will be strangled in his bed because he became too involved with the blond heir elect. The Empire is enslaved and three men substituted. He is put to death with neither letter nor packet read.
