Quatrain 5.40 Italian campaign

Le sang royal sera si tresmesle,

Contrainct seront Gaulois de l'Hesperie:

On attendra que terme soit coule,

Et que memoire de la voix soit perie.

The royal blood will be so very mixed,

Will be constrained Gauls from Hesperia:

One will wait until his term has expired,

And until the memory of his voice has perished.

Hesperia is an ancient name of Italy. It was conquered by Napoleon (Gauls). In 1796 was his first Italian campaign, and in 1805 he became a king of Italy.

The first line does not fit as Napoleon. He did not have royal blood at all – he's an impostor.

Decoding of the number 5.40. If 5 to flip in 2 and to consider 2 as 2000, 2000-04=1996, flip first 9 in 6, 6+1=7, then we get 1796 – the year of first Italian campaign.
