Nostradamus C4 Q46: The history of those who nurture the extinct dragon.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

This and several of the following verses have a common link through anagrams for reptiles. Both C4 Q48 andC4 Q51 actually contain that anagram and the latter of the two also has an anagram for vipers.

In this current verse there are aspen (Ne pas) and Serpentaria (antes par Rei)  while C4 Q47 has iguanians and C4 Q49 refers to Serpens.

In addition three of the seven anagrams for vipers occur in nearby verses (C4 Q36, Q51 and Q56).

 This continuity is one more factor that makes C4 Q45 such a pivotal verse,because it brings unity to the theme of clones created out of extinct animal parts, and gives credibility to the references to dinosaurs, pleiosaurs and pterosaurs found in other verses.

In this verse the reptilian references act as a timing mechanism for Nostradamus' history of the lineage that we will one day come to dread because of its interference with the reptilian and human genes. The story of this verse focusses on the follies and aftermath of wars up to the time of Jean Bernuy of Toulouse.
