History
Lord of the Admiralty, Churchill is summoned by the king. George VI asks him to form the new government: Note:
De Fontbrune has linked this quatrain to the Saint League constituted in 1571 when Don Juan of Spain was put in charge of a fleet to fight the Turks. However, the clues given by Nostradamus do not correspond to his findings. In fact, Don Juan was too ambitious for the king's taste and instead of being promoted at the king's court, he was sent far away as governor of the Low Countries. Thus he certainly did not quit the marine for a higher post. (flotte)
