Here is no space to say more about Dante’s prophecy. In my third volume of Memorable Events more than one hundred pages have been used for disclosing Dante’s strange prophecy regarding the Messenger of God in the 33d or the last Song of Purgatory, in connection with other prophecies with which it is parallel and in connection with the prophecies which have been given A.D. 1814 at the first distribution of premiums after the fall of Emperor Napoleon I, when our city of Laibach returned under the Austrian government, and I received Dante’s Divine Comedy for the first premium out of the Italian language.
