Nostradamus C9 Q35: Bandits desecrate and merchants exploit flood-bound cities.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

This verse contains an anagram for Diogenes an ancient advocate for the art of virtuous cynicism. 

The occurrence of an anagram for biogens then directs the flow of the verse to ongoing reticence by sects to accept ideas arising in modern biology.

Anagrams that help in giving meaning to this verse include:

1. Fettered bandoleers olden codes broadens desecrators sacred starcode
2. Eery quintet reflate usury tardiloquent male codename calmed
3. Diogenes failed as tutor UUagner brand bodies biogens in ill arias
4. Modernity dominate mid note charm merely encroach on merchant ryme tolerance

C9 Q35
Original Verse in English plus French (Benoit Ed.)

And fair Ferdinand will be detached,
abandons Flower to follow Macedonian
In the great pinch his course will fail,
And he will march against the Myrmidons.

Et Ferdinand blonde ſera deſcorte
Quitter la fleur ſuyere le Macedon
Au grand beſoing de faillira ſa routte
Et marchera contre le Myrmidon.
