Nostradamus C10 Q68: In 22ndC Ireland once again afflicted by poverty and invasion.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

There is once again a consistency in this verse between text and anagrams with the anagrams delivering much of the detail that is missing from the text.

We know from the text that it involves the sea, an army, a city, a departure and a return.

The anagrams in the first line tell us the sea is the Atlantic, while the anagram for Emerald (isle), supported by one for Ireland, tells us the country that is besieged. The anagrams for pauperist league in the second line identify a period in the 1840's when the Irish poor Laws were enacted.

The text suggests their army will one day retur, while the anagrams imply this will be because the Irish forge links with Iran.
