CENTURIA I · QUATRAIN XLII
The Last Pope
Le dix Kalende d'Avril de faict Gothique,
Resuscitu00e9 encor par gens malins:
Le feu estainct, assemble diabolique,
Cherchant les os du d'Amant & Pselin.
The tenth Kalend of April, of Gothic fact,
revived again by malicious men:
the fire put out, a diabolical assembly
searching for the bones of the Lover & Pselin.
THE MASTER SAYS…
This quatrain relates to the destruction of the church. In times of unrest, in May, from the middle to the end of the nineties, the church will experience difficult times. At this time the Pope will be killed by representatives of the church, as a result of which the last Pope will come to power, and this quatrain points precisely to this. The word “kalends” is not April. It is the first of May. Nostradamus says that he sometimes likes to play with words, and that this is an anagram that he has somewhat veiled. But it means the first of May. Translators believe that this points to the introduction of the Gregorian calendar system. “These people do not know what they are doing.” This points to the church and intra-church battles. The Pope will be killed by his own, and this will be covered up. The last Pope will be able to come to power. The Pope will be poisoned by a poison that penetrates bone tissue. It will be a special poison that affects the central nervous system, as well as the skeletal system, which in its symptoms resembles the consequences of shock or a blow. They will present his death to the world community in this way. Thus, the last Pope will come to power.
