Virgil‘s Christ Prophecy
(Wikipedia)
Medieval Christians read Virgil‘s poem [Fourth Eclogue, lines 5-8] as a prophecy of the coming of Christ. The Augustan Age, although pre-Christian, was viewed as a goldan age preparing the world for the coming of Christ. The great poets of this age were viewed as a source of revelation and light upon the Christian mysteries to come.
Ultima Cumaei venit iam carminis aetas;
Magnus ab integro saeclorum nascitur ordo.
Iam redit at Virgo, redeunt Saturnia regna,
Iam nova progenies caelo demittitur alto.
Now comes the final era of the Sibyl‘s song;
The great order of the ages is born afresh.
And now justice returns, honored rules return;
Now a new lineage is sent down from high heaven.

„Now thou shalt see where we lay us down, and how I lay us out,
for I mean not to stir an inch hence, whether reek or burning smart me,
and so thou wilt be able to guess where to look for our bones.“
Translation by Sir George W. DaSent (London, 1861).

¹ Message posted to friends, 26 February 2014:
While visiting Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson over coffee at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might possibly “mean“.
I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097, which I have posted [previously].
This is the final cumulative sum of a very large number of [contemporary] names of individuals, institutions, dates and events, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith.
As I recall it, I first put this number on record in an [earlier] message, explaining that I would not be providing any further details on it. That remains my position for the time being.
I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.
An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.
² Medieval myth tells of a British laborer by name of Turchill, whose Soul was taken from his Body so that he might witness the torments that await the wicked and the rewards of the righteous when Seventh Day is done. The following is his „eye-witness“ account.

19159 = cast up his eyes, with the brows arched,

23845 = expanded his chest, stretched his neck, glowed in his face,
17007 = showed signs of anger in his fiery eyes,
17722 = and striking his nose with his finger,
15275 = gave impression of great threats;
19375 = and thus swelling with inward pride,
25990 = he afforded ready subject of laughter to the inhuman spirits.
20831 = And whilst he was boasting about his dress,
16471 = and was fastening gloves by sewing,
