INTRODUCING THE KING HENRY.
HIS NUMBER IS 5 + 1.
AVIGNON CAPITAL OF THE KINGDOM OF FRANCE.
( and finally, the epistle to Henri The Second)
 |
| It really looks like a city of a medieval tale. Four quatrains Nostradamus wrote about this ancient city. |
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Nostradamus wrote
01- AVIGNON CAPITAL OF FRANCE
--- (because there is no choice) ---
Century 3 - Quatrain 93. Old French;
Dans Avignon tout le chef de l'empire
Fera arrest pour Paris desolé
Tricast(1) tiendra l'Annibalique ire,
Lyon par change sera mel consolé.
Century 3 - Quatrain 93. Possible English traslation:
In Avignon the chief of the whole empire
Will make a stop because Paris is desolated
Tricast(1) will hold the anger of Hannibal:
Lyon will be poorly consoled for the change.
INFO:
1- Tricast: Perhaps Tricastin (Provenca, France) and Nuclear site.
+ As I explained earlier in the chapter devoted to Anibal and Islam, the leader of France in Avignon rest because Paris will be desolate and Muslim leader used a weapon like those made in Tricastin (Nuclear site):

---------------------------------------------------------------
AVIGNON? WHY?
WHERE?
+ Avignon is a French city and commune, capital of the Vaucluse department in the Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur. It is located on the left bank of the Rhone River in the department of Vaucluse, about 653 km southeast of Paris and 80 km northwest of Marsella.
 |
| .... and Carpentras near to Avignon. |
OLD, BUT .......
+ Aviñón not only an administrative, but also a cultural and artistic showcase of first order . It is a protected heritage village, as evidenced by the statement, in 1995, the center of Avignon as a World Heritage Site by Unesco.
+ Often referred to as the "City of Popes" because of the presence of popes and antipopes from 1309 to 1423 during the Catholic schism, it is currently the largest city and capital of the département of Vaucluse
+ The walls (Remparts) of the city, in good condition, were built by the popes in the fourteenth century, are still around Avignon and one of the best surviving examples of medieval fortifications.
LITTLE CITY.
+ Of the 94,787 inhabitants of the city (as of 1 January 2010), about 12,000 live in the ancient town centre surrounded by its medieval ramparts. This is one of the few French cities to have preserved its ramparts, its historic centre, the palace of the popes, Rocher des Doms, and the bridge of Avignon.
PROBLEM?
+ To Nostradamus the size of a city is not a problem. He notes that in a small town will reside the Empire:
02- THE MOVE.
Century 1 - quatrain 32. Old French:
Le grand Empire sera tost translaté
En lieu petit, qui bientost viendra croistre,
Lieu bien infime d'exiguë comté
Où au milieu viendra poser son sceptre.
Century 1 - quatrain 32. Possible English Traslation:
The great Empire will soon be exchanged
for a small place, which soon will begin to grow.
A small place of a very tiny county
in the middle of which he will come to lay down his sceptre.
INFO:
+ The origin of Avignon is the Des Doms rock on which it stands. Farallon strategic defensive and was soon fortified. The city called "river town" or "town of violent wind", meets both nicknames. Place important from the twelfth century by the bridge across the Rhone allowed. But it will be in the fourteenth century when the arrival of the Popes in Avignon transforms a SECOND ROME. Earth-seekers, the city will attract foreigners, businessmen, exiles, bankers, religious edges and across Europe. Even those who were persecuted found shelter in Avignon, as the poet Petrarch.
COMMENT
+ Usually this quatrain is related to Napoleon and the Islands where he lived his last years, but this is nonsense. Elba and St. Lucia are islands and have not grown in any sense.
+ Other people say that is Bonn because the city of Bonn was the capital of West Germany after the defeat of the Third Reich (Third Empire).
I PREFER AVIGNON.

See ADDENDA 10 (Dec 21,2012) About AVIGON & TURIN
MORE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nole
 |
| + Nole is very small (blue spot) , perhaps Nostradamus is referring to Turin. + Lyon, Avignon and the Rhone river on the other side of the Alps, but close. + by Google maps. |
COMMENT:
+ I guess the King of France launched a military offensive along the river Rhone. he exceed five defensive lines and will reach the vicinity of Turin finally.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
AVIGNON & THE NAME OF THE GREAT KING.
(The supplication of the Romans in his letter is accepted)
+ And what will be the name of the king who will conquer Avignon?
05- HIS NAME.
Century 9 - quatrain 41. Old French:
Le grand Chyren(1) soy saisir Avignon,
De Rome letres en miel plein d'amertume
Letre ambassade partir de Chanignon(2),
Carpentras(3) pris par duc noir rouge plume.
Century 9 - quatrain 41. Possible English traslation:
The great Henry(1) capture Avignon itself,
From Rome letters in honey but full of bitterness
Embassy letter from Chanignon(2),
(3) Carpentras taken by a black duke with a red feather.
INFO:
(1)- "Chyren" possible anagram of "Henryc" (Old French, is "Henri").
(2)- .... Searching
(3)- Carpentras is a town and commune of France, situated in the Vaucluse department in the Provence-Alpes-Cote d'Azur. Is the sub-prefecture of the district and the head of two cantons. Is next to Avignon.
& DUKE A duke (male) or duchess (female) can either be a monarch ruling over a duchy or a member of the nobility, historically of highest rank below the monarch. The title comes from French duc, itself from the Latin dux, 'leader', a term used in republican Rome to refer to a military commander without an official rank (particularly one of Germanic or Celtic origin), and later coming to mean the leading military commander of a province.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke
COMMENT
+ I guess the Romans seek help to free Italy and to win the Rome's Muslim conqueror.
+ Meanwhile Carpentras will be liberated by a BLACK general WITH A RED FEATHER.
-----------------------------------------------------------
06- THE POWERFUL HENRY.
Century 6 - quatrain 70. Old French:
Au chef du monde le grand Chyren sera,
Plus outre apres ayme, crainct, redouté:
Son bruict et loz les cieux surpassera,
Et du seul tiltre vigueur fort contenté.
Century 6 - quatrain 70. Possible English Traslation:
Chief of the world the great HENRY will be,
No other after so loved, feared & dreaded:
His fame and praise will go beyond the heavens,
And with the sole title of mighty will he be quite satisfied.
COMMENT
+ It is obvious, right?
+ And this is the reason that Nostradamus wrote a "Epistle to Henry the second". No "Henri II" but "Henri The Second" because he prophesied his death in a tournament and "Second" in latin means SECUNDUS namely "next", "following", "second" & "favorable". "Henri The Second" means "Henri The Favorable" (one that helps to make something, promote, encourage, etc ...).
+Now the "Epistle to Henri" makes sense, the first lines of the letter are in agreement with the contents of the quatrain 70 of Century 6.

07- ROYAL FAMILY
Century 5 - quatrain 74. Old French:
De sang Troyen naistra coeur Germanique(1)
Qui deviendra en si haute puissance:
Hors chassera gent estrange Arabique,
Tournant l'Eglise en pristine preeminence.
Century 5 - quatrain 74. Possible English Traslation:
Of Trojan blood will be born Germanic heart(1)
Will become very high power:
Drive out the people strange Arabian
Turning the Church to its pristine pre-eminence.
INFO:
(1) He is a member of the House of France and he is the heir to the throne of France by origin (Merovingian Bloodline):
+ “Trojan blood” is a reference to the legend that the first Frankish kings were descended from Francus, son of King Priam of Troy. The Merovingians were the first kings of the Franks.
+ The Merovingian king Dagobert I seems to have begun this as he would sign deeds with “ex nobilissimo et antiquo Trojanarum reliquiarum sanguine nati” (TRASLATION "the most noble and ancient relics of Trojan blood born")
+ The term House of France refers to the members of the Capetian dynasty from which came the Kings of France since the election of Hugh Capet. In retrospect of the monarchy, the Merovingians and Carolingians were encompassed by the House of France by French historians and jurists.In contemporary times, both King Juan Carlos of Spain and Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg are members of this family, both through the Bourbon branch of the dynasty.

More about HENRI VI:
+ Legitimism is the name of the current that supports the restoration of the reign of the House of Bourbon in France. Loyalists recognize, since 1830, the Bourbons as heirs to the throne of France, in the event that the monarchy was restored in that country. They oppose the Orleanists, supporters of the descendants of the last French king, Louis Philippe I.
+ On the death of Alfonso XIII of Spain in 1941, Jaime became pretender to the throne as Henry VI of France. From him descends the line current French monarchy, represented by his grandson Luis Alfonso de Borbón (known in France as Louis Alphonse de Bourbon, a Spanish nobleman, legitimist pretender to the French throne.)

COMMENT
+ King Henry VI to reign in France and Avignon will be the Capital of the Kingdom. The Arabs will expire and he will restore the power of the Pope of the Catholic Church recovering Rome.The pleas of the Romans in his letter are accepted.

ADDENDA
ADD 09. DECEMBER 10, 2012.
- PARIS, AVIGNON & THE MYSTERY OF THE CITIES OF SOUTHERN FRANCE ( and a curious mathematical problem).
Century 3 - Quatrain 56. Old French:
Montauban, Nismes, Avignon et Besier,
Peste, tonnere et gresle a fin de Mars:
De Paris pont, Lyon mur, Montpellier,
Depuis six cens et sept vingts trois pars.
Century 3 - Quatrain 56. Possible English Traslation:
Montauban, Nîmes, Avignon and Béziers,
Plague, thunder and hail the end of March:
Of Paris bridge, Lyon wall, Montpellier,
After six hundreds and seven twenty three parts (or pairs).
(or "After 600 & 7 23 parts (or pairs)").
INFO:
+ Except Paris, all cities mentioned by Nostradamus belong south of France, as seen in this image captured from Google:
 |
| What makes these cities so special to Nostradamus? + Montauban, Beziers, Montpellier, Nimes, Avignon, Lyon (The wall). + Is the path it takes an army to get to Lyon? + You, French citizen, What do you think? |
+ Considering that "WALL" can mean a "DEFENSE LINE" or "OBSTACLE" for anyone who wants to cross a boundary and "BRIDGE" as a word meaning "EXIT" OR "ESCAPE" through something. Then ...
+ ..... The quatrain could mean the end of March there will be a military offensive from Montauban and Bezieres to Lyon, where the invading army will be stopped. I do not know that can mean the last numbers of the last verse. Maybe a French citizen of that area can tell me what mean these quantities and their relationship.
+ ..... And the people of PARIS will flee from this great city for some awful reason (perhaps related to the Tricastin s power and the fury of Anibal).
ADD 10. December 21, 2012.
AVIGNON SHOULD BE SACKED BY THE INVADERS.
Century 1 _ Quatrain 71. Old French:

 |
| FROM http://www.aix-en-provence.world-guides.com/ |
+Pisa and Turin are Italian cities:
 |
| http://www.worldtravelguide.net/italy/cities |
PISA is a city in Tuscany, Central Italy, on the right bank of the mouth of the River Arno on the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is the capital city of the Province of Pisa.
TURIN is a city and major business and cultural centre in northern Italy, capital of the Piedmont region, located mainly on the left bank of the Po River, in front of Susa Valley and surrounded by the western Alpine arch.
COMMENT
+I think the Provence will be invaded by people coming from Italy.
+Those who looted Avignon, these military will have been destined in Turin.
+It seems that the invasion will come from the sea, is a strange tradition: So the key issue around Marseille?
END ADDENDA.
