La grande perte las que feront les lettres,
Auant li cicle de Latona parfaict:
Feu grand deluge plus par ignares sceptres,
Que de long siecle ne se verra refaict.
Translation
(Van Berkel, 2004)
Alas, what a great loss will letters suffer,
Before the cycle of Latona is completed;
Fire, great deluge more through ignorant rulers
Than will be seen made up for a long time.
Van
Berkel categorizes this quatrain as a millennium
quatrain.
In
the second line, the name "Latona" is given. This is another
name for the Moon. The words "cycle of Latona" mean: the sixth
millennium, ruled by the Moon. Nostradamus writes that this quatrain
will be fulfilled "before the cycle of Latona is completed",
i.e. before the end of the sixth millennium.
According
to the millennium model, the sixth millennium ends on April 25, 1827.
This means that this quatrain must be fulfilled shortly before 1827.
This
quatrain is expired. The contents are too vague to evaluate whether or
not this quatrain is fulfilled.

La grande perte las que
feront les letres
Auant li cicle de Latonia parfaict:
Feu, grand deluge, plus par ignares sceptres,
Que de longs siecles ne se verra refaict.
Brind'Amour
interprets the second line as a reference to the rulership of the Moon
over a period of 354 years and 4 months, which ends in 1887. Therefore,
the year of fulfilment is before 1887. He connects this quatrain with
the quatrains 04-18, 06-08 and 08-71
and with a passage in the Letter to Cesar.[1]

La grande peste, las! que
feront les lettres,
Auant li cicle de Latona parfaict:
Feu grand deluge plus par ignares sceptres,
Que de long siecle ne se verra refaict.
Translation
(Wöllner, 1926)
Weh über den grossen Verlust, den die Wissenschaften erleiden,
bevor der Zyklus Latonas vollendet ist.
Feuer, grosse Überschwemmungen durch unwissende Lenker.
In langem Zeitlauf wird das nicht wieder geschehen.
Wöllner
interprets the second line as a reference to the "Orbis magnus
period" of the Moon, which ran from 1288 to 1648 AD. He connects
this quatrain with the Thirty Year War (1618-1648).[2]
