Hi,
One of the most impressive prophecies was Nostradamus' Quatraine 1.35
The young Lion, he will overcome the older one.
In a martial field by single combat,
Inside a cage of gold his eyes pierced,
Two ranks one, then dying, cruel death.
Notradamus explained the meaning of the quatrain to the Queen in 1556. In Paris in 1559 there was a joust and the prophecy was fulfilled.
The young lion, The Scottish Count of Montgomery he had acepted a challenge at a tournament in honour of the King's daughter,from the older lion, King Henri II of France.
On the first joust run the Duke of Montgomery nearly knocked the king off his horse, this led to the king demanding another run. However, this time the two men clashed and the King's lance shattered and he was mortally wounded.
The King's was wearing a
gold embossed helmet!
His face wascovered in blood and splinters and one had
pierced the left eye.
'Two ranks one', filfilled, because next day, Princess Marguerite married the Duke of Savoy in the church of St Paul, as arranged.
'Then dying, cruel death,' It took Henri about a fortnight to die from a horrendous infection that had set in, a very cruel death.
A very impressive prophecy, no ambiguity, crystal clear meaning and verified by many different sources.
Brian.
