So – the first line, with my proposed emphasis on the word " dix ": "Ten – Kalends of April from the Gothic fact …". Already knowing about the secret love of Nostradamus for the number nine, I dare to suggest that in this case we are talking about ten.

The April Kalends fall on the 91st day of the year, starting on January 1st. The statistics on the numerals " dix " in the first seven Centuries is as follows: in 1-42, 7-31, 7-37 – " dix ", in 5-71, 5-92, 6-59 – " dixsept ", i.e. . "seventeen".

It suggests adding the findings together: 10+10+10+17+17+17=81. Before the "April Kalends" one ten is missing. Perhaps it is the "Gothic Fact" – the Gothic alphabet, that will give a hint. It contained analogues of many Greek letters, including Kappa, however, unlike the Greek Kappa, which is the tenth in the alphabet, in the Gothic letter “Kusma ( Chosma) – an analogue , was the eleventh, but had a real numerical value, like in the Greek Kappa, i.e. 20. But did Nostradamus know about this?

So – "Kappa", – the last missing "ten", consisting of letters, albeit not French – but a dozen. As a result, the number inherent in the April Kalends has developed. At the end of this topic, I want to lay out the same quatrain in the version of the 1555 edition:

1-42 Le dix Kalendes d' Ap uril de faict Gotique,

Resuscite encor par gens malins: Le feu estainct, assemblee diabolique ,

Cherchant les or du d' A mant & P selin.

\ It differs only in the spelling of the word "April". But "how much is in this word." Not otherwise than hidden from prying eyes " KApPA " manifested itself! Sometimes, however, it is useful to look into the earliest editions of the Prophecies.

___________________________________________________________________________

the " alphabetic" theme, the ideas have not yet dried up.

1-98 Le chef qu'aura conduit peuple infiny

Loing de son ciel, de meurs & langue estrange:

Cinq mil en Crete & Thessalie finy,

Le chef fuyant sauue' en marine grrange.

The head that will guide the people of the endless

Far from one's own sky, from the manners and language of a stranger:

Five thousand in Crete and Thessaly finished,

The head of the escapee is rescued in the sea shed.

Neither Crete nor Thessaly are mentioned again in the first seven Centuries. It is possible to link these toponyms only to something Greek, given the mention in the quatrain of a “foreign language” – to the Greek language.

At the time of the compilation of the Prophecies, Crete and Thessaly were part of the Ottoman Empire, but the population is Greek, and from time immemorial the Greek language has been spoken.

On this basis, according to the third line of this quatrain, "Five thousand in Greek is finished." Finished, obviously, with the help of a chapter.

Now, you should pay attention to the peculiarity of the old Greek alphabet, and the alphabet itself will not be superfluous to review.

The sum of the meanings of all the letters of this old Greek alphabet is…. 4995 . It remains to wait for the help of the "head". The first " Chef " from quatrain 1-98 is the sixth in the Centuries. Therefore, this whole, as it turned out, “popular” mass, under the leadership of the “head”, is gaining a numerical value equal to
