Epistle to Henry II 81
Writings of Nostradamus
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 committed 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 splendor, than the grandeur of my labor can attain to or acquire.

1
The arc of the treasure deceived by Achilles,
the quadrangle known to the procreators.
The invention will be known by the Royal deed;
a corpse seen hanging in the sight of the populace.
2
Opened by Mars Arles will not give war,
the soldiers will be astonished by night.
Black and white concealing indigo on land
under the false shadow you will see traitors sounded.
3
After the naval victory of France,
the people of Barcelona the Saillinons and those of Marseilles;
the robber of gold, the anvil enclosed in the ball,
the people of Ptolon will be party to the fraud.

accompanied by people from Autun and Lyons.
