Among his famous quatrains, revelations that signal the dangerous rise to power of Adolf Hitler:
« From the depths of Western Europe,
A little child will be born to the poor people,
He who with his tongue will seduce a large troop;
His fame will increase towards the eastern kingdom »
Or the premonition of the death of Henry II, king of France, struck in the eye by a lance during a duel
« The young lion, the old one will win.
The war field, for singular pain.
In a golden cage, his eyes will pop out
of the fighting forces one will remain,
the other will die a cruel death ."
