Nostradamus' C.8 Q.56:  The astrologer who guides a contrite pope on climate change. The most notable anagram in this verse  is that for astrologer as no other variants of this term are found anywhere else in the Prophecies. The guidance provided by the anagrams moves the focus to a contrite pope who consults fourteen astrologists about the troubles that climate change brings upon his throne. This is once again a verse that has relevance to events accompanying his predicted flood for the end of this century when seventy percent of all land will be underwater (See my paper on Floods for more).   C.8 Q.56 The weak band will occupy the land, those of high places will make dreadful cries.  The large herd of the outer corner troubled,  near D.nebro it falls discovered by the writings. La bande foible le tertre occupera  Ceux de hault lieu feront horribles crys  Le gros troppeau de$tre coin troublera  Tombe pres D. nebro de$couuers les e$cris. Anagram Sequences in French Text.

Nostradamus C.8 Q.26: Two of Nostradamus 16thC patrons. I believe this verse is included to indicate  the calibre of the people who supported Nostradamus' quest. Nostradamus' major patron appears to have been Jean de Bernuy, pastel dye grower and exporter of Toulouse. The story of this man is given in greater detail in my paper on Nostradamus Sect. His last name is found amongst the anagrams in the fourth line of this verse  while the story in the text and the anagrams can be interpreted in a consistent way. It appears to be the tale of a smuggling route for pastel dye between Toulouse and Barcelona. Such an operation was necessary throughout much of Bernuy's life. The third line behaves in a familar way for it has a lovely crypticism built into it- The great one who holds, but does not hold is a good metaphor for the dye trade which was is in perpetual competition to improve the fastness of colour. These trails can be seen in anagrams such as dyes, surety, irresolute (for the process) and Caderonne, subterraneous route (for a secret passage through the tunnels along the French-Spanish border route from mid France to Barcelona).   There is however another tale of the sixteent century to be found in the anagrams and it is about a map-maker from England who is deeply involved in the revolution of the difficult art of creating a too-scale world map that was correct for all regions from the equator to the poles. I believe that  the relevance of this story is that the person who succeeded Bernuy as patron of Nostradamus.   C.8 Q.26 The bones of Cato found in Barcelona, placed, discovered, the site found again and ruined The great one who holds, but does not hold, wants Pamplona, drizzle at the abbey of Montferrat.
