The thirty-nine prophecies in question date back to at least the 12th century where we find unmistakable references to them in the Prophetiae Merlini and Vita Merlini of Geoffrey of Monmouth. Additional references to those prophecies can be found in cabalistic writings of the 12th and 13th centuries. However, from the time of Nachmanides (d. 1270) until the publication of the prophecies in 1588/90, I have yet to uncover clear evidence that anyone in Europe had fresh sight of those prophecies.

The prophecies themselves self-date their authorship to circa A.D. 576. Their whereabouts from that time until the 12th century is unknown. There are indications that the Knights Templar may have found them in their excavations beneath the Temple of Solomon during the 1120s, but none of that is certain.

In the Nostradamus publication, the thirty-nine prophecies were translated into French and then surrounded and masked by nine hundred newly-written predictions. The original language of the prophecies is unknown. I had always assumed it was Latin (and indeed there are many signs of this) which leaves me unable to explain Geoffrey's claim that they were written in "British". It reminds me of very strange remarks found in the New Atlantis of 1627:

"There was also in both these writings, as well the Book, as the Letter, wrought a great miracle, conform to that of the Apostles, in the original Gift of Tongues. For there being at that time in this land Hebrews, Persians, and Indians, besides the natives, every one read upon the Book, and Letter, as if they had been written in his own language."

I have found reasons to suspect that the New Atlantis was falsely attributed to Sir Francis Bacon after his death, and that the true author (who wrote it in Latin) was the same person who wrote the VMS marginalia. Thus, it's possible that quire 20 encodes the prophecies as written in multiple languages. In other words, the reason Prescott Currier found each VMS line to be an independent functional unit is that each line could be encoding a different language, but all saying the same thing.

Overall, my theories postulate that the real motive of the Cathar Crusade of the 13th century was to find and destroy those prophecies, that the prophecies survived via escape to the Americas, and that the VMS was their vehicle of survival for most the 15th and 16th centuries.
