Nostradamus C10 Q98: A queen depends on ruffians who have killed her majestic lover.
Copyright: Allan Webber, December 2015

This verse refers to the person who serves as Nostradamus vector for seeing the invasion of France in the 21st C.

The setting of the text fits to an age of turmoil where many cities are now underwater. The universal monster reference may well be applied to the arrival of DNA in space objects that are part of the story of that time period.

The anagrams for Oedipus and Caesareum provide the allusion for a queen whose imperial lover is killed causing her to turn against her own parents.

Anagrams that help in giving meaning to this verse include:

1. Ape endure cruel pleas air palls are unrecalled clue Joel use as joy 
2. Yule pray Pauls longest Luneless arenas tempers Empress eras
3. Oedipuses fine soul cause anarch use ruffians charm
4. In Plutos solemnest steps universe resolute inventors meets Vermont's melees

For the merry maid the bright splendor
Shines no longer,for long she be without
