Nostradamus C4 Q44: Agrippa's utility versus the pedantry of the Protestants.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015
This verse is used by Nostradamus to further expand the
sources on which he and his sect relied in order to argue for and against
their own philosophy.
The names of the towns and cities are used to
generate the anagrammatic names of the authors of the works on which he
drew.
The negative tone of the text of lines two and three, could well
imply that Lutheranic views and those held by
Calvin, are ones to which
his sect were opposed.
On the other hand, Nostradamus implies he uses the other
two lines for building a map for using the lists of
demonic names provided by Agrippa in his books titled De Occulta
Philosophia libri III .
