Quatrain 8.53 Arena of the Sun

Dedans Bologne voudra lauer ses fautes,

Il ne pourra au temple du soleil,

Il volera faisant chose si hautes,

En hierarchie n'en fut oncq vn pareil.

Within Bologna he will want to wash away his faults,

he cannot at the temple of the Sun.

He will fly away, doing very great things:

In the hierarchy he had never an equal.

The 1 line. On June 19, 1796 Napoleon, having only a general rank back then arrived in Bologna and proclaimed it a Constitutional Republic. He also announced the decline of the papal state. Perhaps the oppression of the church and the confiscation of its property is meant here by the sins. The wash away his faults is the investment of the part of the confiscation in construction of the theatre.

The 2 line. Theatre "Arena of the Sun" was created in Bologna (Italy) in 1810, upon the initiative of Napoleon I, who wanted to convert part of the city for public entertainment. During the French occupation, an open theatrical arena was built here, where the performances took place before sunset, which gave it its name.

The 3 line. Napoleon's career in 19 years can be called a takeoff: from a junior lieutenant to the emperor of France and Italy.

The 4 line. He managed to conquer almost all of Europe.

Linkage with other quatrains: 4.54, 8.57, 1.76.

Decoding of the number 8.53. 8000-35=7965. If 5 to flip in 2, 2-1=1, 1 to put in front, then we get 1796 – the year of arrived in Bologna.
