Nostradamus C5 Q21: Darker references from which N's war tales are drawn.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

I believe the first line of text does not relate to a person but to a cultural change that took place at about the time Nostradamus wrote his Prophecies. 

That cultural change was the move away from the use of Latin as the medium for interpreting the bible.

This verses text is then an appropriate description of the events in the 16th century as scholars struggled for their new works to prevail.

In so doing they brought havoc upon themselves and their followers.

The same is true of the verses anagrams but they contribute to an even darker set of publications involving the occult and non-Christian religions.

For example this verse contains a sequence of anagrams in its first line which says repeats Quran planetary modus (e treſpa - s du mo- narqu- e lati Par).

In C2 Q20 there is also a sequence conveying these ideas for it says patrons repress modus Quran route use. And there are other references citing the Nordic pagan writings and later ideas given in books such as The Golden Bough. This type of multi referencing of ancient material is common technique employed in the verses comprising this section of the Prophecies.

# Tibelenus: a ancient name identified by Heinrich Agrippa as referring to the Norns in Book 3 on Occult Philosohy or Magic.
# quaternal: a term restricted to books on occult logic such as The Golden Bough.
# Uruz: The nordic rune of strength.
# Idris: one of the earliest prophets mentioned in the Quran - some equate this man with Enoch in the biblical tales.
# Sciron: In Greek mythology Sciron was a famous bandit killed by Hercules or alternately A Megarian warlord.
