Quatrain 5.81 Capitulation of France

L'oyseau Royal sur la Cité solaire,

Sept mois deuant fera nocturne augure:

Mur d'Orient cherra tonnerre esclaire,

Sept iours aux portes les ennemis à l'heure.

The royal bird over the city of the Sun,

Seven months in advance it will deliver a nocturnal omen:

The Eastern wall will fall lightning thunder,

Seven days the enemies directly to the gates.

Nostradamus calls Paris the city of the sun not only here, but also in the quatrain 1.8. The royal bird – the soaring eagle was the symbol of the Luftwaffe (German Air Force). Apparently, it is predicted the night flights of reconnaissance aircraft under the command of Rovel. In 1939-1940 it conducted reconnaissance of France and allied countries. This can be regarded as a warning, (prophecy) of the impending attack. Seven months, apparently, the period of a strange war is a confrontation between German and French troops on the Maginot line, from September 1939 to April 1940.

In the third line, the fall of the Eastern wall, the Maginot defensive line, is predicted. Thunder and lightning – shooting and bombing.

In the 4th line – the last seven days before the surrender of Paris.

Linkage with other quatrains: 5.30.

Decoding of the number 5.81. If 500-81=419, 9 to put in front, then we get 941-1=940 – the year of capitulation of France.
