For seven years fortune will favor Philip,

He will beat down again the exertions of the Berbers:

Then at his noon perplexing contrary affair,

Young Ogmios will destroy his stronghold.

The 1 line. Philip II, king of Spain since 1556, was very successful at the beginning of his reign. He controlled vast territories in America, Italy, the Netherlands, and France. His fleet was the most powerful at that time.

The 2 line. Spain successfully fought against the Berbers in the 1560s on land and at sea.

In line 3 the expression at his noon can be understood as the middle of life. The revolution in the Netherlands in 1565 weakened the power of Philip. His affairs began to decline. His debts grew. In 1588 England defeated the "Invincible Armada." Spain has ceased to be the "mistress of the seas."

In the 4th line the young Ogmios is Henry IV. He declared war on Spain in 1595 and won. In May 1598 the Verwen Peace was signed. Philip II withdrew troops from all occupied French territories. He soon died in 09/13/1598.

Decoding of the number 9.89. 98 is the year, and 9 is the month of the death of Philip II. If 9 to turn over to 6, 6-1=5 (589), then the permutation of the numbers gives 598 year.

Quatrain 4.2 The Franco-Spanish War 1635-1659

Par mort la France prendra voyage à faire,

Classe par mer, marcher monts Pyrenees,

Espagne en trouble, marcher gent militaire,

Des plus grand; dames en France emmenees.
