Popes and corresponding mottos

[edit]

The list can be divided into two groups; one of the 74 popes and antipopes who reigned prior to the appearance of the prophecies c. 1590, for whom the connection between the motto and the pope is consistently clear. The other is of the 38 mottos attributed to popes who have reigned since 1590, for whom the connection between the motto and the pope is often strained or totally absent and could be viewed as shoehorning or postdiction.

René Thibaut divides the table at a different point, between the 71st and 72nd motto, asserting that there is a change in style at this point. He uses this distinction to put forward the view that the first 71 mottos are post-dated forgeries, while the remainder are genuine.[1] Hildebrand Troll echoes this view, noting that mottos 72-112 use a symbolic language related to the character of the pope and his papacy, in contrast to the more literal mottos for earlier popes.[2]

Popes and antipopes 1143–1590 (pre-publication)

[edit]

The text on the silver lines below reproduces the original text (including punctuation and orthography) of the 1595 Lignum Vitae, which consisted of three parallel columns for the popes before 1590. The first column contained the motto, the second the name of the pope or antipope to whom it was attached (with occasional errors), and the third an explanation of the motto. There are some indications that both the mottos and explanations were the work of a single 16th century individual.[3] The original list was unnumbered.

Pre-appearance Popes (1143–1590)
Motto No. Motto (Translation) Regnal Name (Reign) Name Explanation Provided in Lignum Vitae Coat of Arms
Ex caſtro Tiberis. Cœleſtinus. ij. Typhernas.
1. From a castle of the Tiber Celestine II (1143–1144) Guido de Castello An inhabitant of Tifernum.

Inimicus expulſus. Lucius. ij. De familia Caccianemica.
2. Enemy expelled Lucius II (1144–1145) Gherardo Caccianemici del Orso Of the Caccianemici family.
According to Wion, this motto refers to Lucius II's family name, Caccianemici; in Italian, “Cacciare” means “to drive out” and “nemici” means “enemies”.[5] While he has been traditionally viewed as being part of this family, it is doubtful whether he actually was; moreover, even if he actually belonged to that family, the attribution of the surname Caccianemici is certainly anachronistic.[6]
Ex magnitudine mõtis. Eugenius. iij. Patria Ethruſcus oppido Montis magni.
3. From the great mountain Eugene III (1145–1153) Bernardo dei Pagnelli di Montemagno Tuscan by nation, from the town of Montemagno.
According to Wion, the motto refers to Eugene III’s birthplace, “Montemagno.”[7] But actually he was born in Pisa in modest family.[8][9]
Abbas Suburranus. Anaſtaſius. iiij. De familia Suburra.
4. Abbot from Subbura Anastasius IV (1153–1154) Corrado di Suburra From the Suburra family.[7] He was traditionally referred to as abbot of the canon regulars of St. Ruf in Avignon, but modern scholars have established that he actually belonged to the secular clergy.[10]

Wion reverses the names and order of Antipopes Callixtus III (John of Struma) and Paschal III (Guido of Crema). Paschal, not Callixtus, was born Guido of Crema and held the title of Santa Maria in Trastevere, to which the motto applies.[13]

The pretended interpreter who knew that Patare was the birthplace of St. Nicholas forgot that others may not be aware of the fact, and that therefore the explanation would be thrown away on them."[3]

De rore cœli. Vrbanus. VII. qui fuit Archiepiſcopus Roſſanenſis in Calabria, ubi mãna colligitur.
74. From the dew of the sky Urban VII (1590) Giovanni Battista Castagna Who was Archbishop of Rossano in Calabria, where manna is collected.
He had been Archbishop of Rossano in Calabria where sap called "the dew of heaven" is gathered from trees.[70]

Popes 1590 to present (post-publication)

[edit]

For this group of popes, the published text only provides names for the first three (i.e., those who were popes between the appearance of the text c. 1590, and its publication in 1595) and provides no explanations.

Post-appearance Popes (1590–present)
Motto No. Motto (Translation) Regnal Name (Reign) Name Interpretations and Criticisms Coat of Arms
Ex antiquitate Vrbis. Gregorius. XIIII.
75. Of the antiquity of the city / From the old city Gregory XIV (1590–1591) Niccolo Sfondrati This may have been intended by the author of the prophecies to suggest that Cardinal Girolamo Simoncelli was destined to succeed Urban VII. Simoncelli was from Orvieto, which in Latin is Urbs vetus, old city. Simoncelli was not elected pope, however, Niccolo Sfondrati was, who took the name Gregory XIV. Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to explain it by noting that Gregory XIV's father was a senator of the ancient city of Milan, and the word "senator" is derived from the Latin senex, meaning old man, or that Milan is the "old city" in question, having been founded c. 400 BCE.[71]
Pia ciuitas in bello. Innocentius. IX.
76. Pious citizens in war Innocent IX (1591) Giovanni Antonio Facchinetti Proponents of the prophecies have suggested different interpretations to relate this motto to Innocent IX, including references to his birthplace of Bologna or title of Patriarch of Jerusalem.[72]
Crux Romulea. Clemens. VIII.
77. Cross of Romulus Clement VIII (1592–1605) Ippolito Aldobrandini Proponents of the prophecies have suggested different interpretations to relate this motto to Clement VIII, including linking it to the embattled bend on his arms or the war between Catholic Ireland and Protestant England during his papacy.[73]
Vndoſus uir.
78. Wavy man Leo XI (1605) Alessandro Ottaviano De Medici This may have been intended by the author of the prophecies to suggest to his audience a possible heraldic design, but it does not correspond to Leo XI's Medici arms. Proponents of the prophecies have suggested different interpretations to relate this motto to this pope, including relating it to his short reign "passing like a wave."[74]
Gens peruerſa.
79. Wicked race Paul V (1605–1621) Camillo Borghese Proponents of the prophecies have suggested it is a reference to the dragon and the eagle on Paul V's arms.[75]
In tribulatione pacis.
80. In the trouble of peace Gregory XV (1621–1623) Alessandro Ludovisi The lack of plausible explanations for this motto leads O'Brien to comment, "The prophet, up to 1590, did not deal in generalities."[76]
Lilium et roſa.
81. Lily and rose Urban VIII (1623–1644) Maffeo Barberini This motto again may have been intended to suggest a heraldic device, but not one that matches Urban VIII's arms. Proponents of the prophecies have alternatively suggested that it is a reference to the bees that do occur on his arms, to the fleur-de-lis of his native Florence, or to his dealings in France (the lily) and England (the rose).[77]
Iucunditas crucis.
82. Delight of the cross Innocent X (1644–1655) Giovanni Battista Pamphili Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Innocent X by noting that he was raised to the pontificate around the time of the Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross.[78]
Montium cuſtos.
83. Guard of the mountains Alexander VII (1655–1667) Fabio Chigi Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Alexander VII by noting that his papal arms include six hills, though this was not an uncommon device, and this explanation would not account for the "guard" portion of the motto.[79]
Sydus olorum.
84. Star of the swans Clement IX (1667–1669) Giulio Rospigliosi This again may have been intended to be taken as an allusion to heraldry; O'Brien notes that there is an Italian family with arms featuring a swan with stars, but it had no relation to Clement IX. Proponents of the prophecies have claimed he had a room called the "chamber of swans" during the conclave.[80]
De flumine magno.
85. From a great river Clement X (1670–1676) Emilio Altieri Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Clement X by claiming that the Tiber overflowed its banks at his birth, or as an obscure reference to his family name.[81]
Bellua inſatiabilis.
86. Insatiable beast Innocent XI (1676–1689) Benedetto Odescalchi Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to the lion on Innocent XI's arms.[82]
Pœnitentia glorioſa.
87. Glorious penitence Alexander VIII (1689–1691) Pietro Ottoboni Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Alexander VIII by interpreting as a reference to the submission of the Gallican bishops.[83] O'Brien notes, "There are glorious repentances during every pontificate."[84]
Raſtrum in porta.
88. Rake in the door[85] Innocent XII (1691–1700) Antonio Pignatelli Some sources discussing the prophecy give Innocent XII's family name as "Pignatelli del Rastello," which would provide a clear way for proponents to connect this motto to this pope (rastello or rastrello is Italian for rake).[86] Others, however, give the pope's family name as simply "Pignatelli", and indicate that it is difficult to find a satisfactory explanation to associate the pope with the motto.[87]
Flores circundati.
89. Surrounded flowers Clement XI (1700–1721) Giovanni Francesco Albani A medal of Clement XI was created with the motto, "Flores circumdati", drawn from his description in the prophecies, which were widely circulated at that time.[88]
De bona religione.
90. From good religion Innocent XIII (1721–1724) Michelangelo dei Conti Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Innocent XIII by interpreting it as a reference to the fact several popes had come from his family.[89]
Miles in bello.
91. Soldier in War Benedict XIII (1724–1730) Pietro Francesco Orsini Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to particular wars that occurred during Benedict XIII's pontificate, or a figurative war against decadence in favour of austerity.[90]
Columna excelſa.
92. Lofty column Clement XII (1730–1740) Lorenzo Corsini This may have been intended by the author of the prophecies as a reference to a pope of the Colonna family; a similar motto was used to describe to Martin V, who was pope before the publication of the prophecies. Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Clement XII as an allusion to a statue erected in his memory or the use of two columns from the Pantheon of Agrippa in a chapel he built.[91]
Animal rurale.
93. Country animal Benedict XIV (1740–1758) Marcello Lambertini This may have been intended as a reference to armorial bearings, but it does not match Benedict XIV's arms. Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to this pope as a description of his "plodding ox" diligence.[92]
Roſa Vmbriæ.
94. Rose of Umbria Clement XIII (1758–1769) Carlo Rezzonico Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Clement XIII as a reference to his elevation to sainthood of several Franciscans, to which order the motto can refer.[93]
Vrſus uelox.
95. Swift bear (later misprinted as Cursus velox Swift Course or Visus velox Swift Glance) Clement XIV (1769–1774) Lorenzo Giovanni Vincenzo Antonio Ganganelli Proponents of the prophecies have struggled to provide a satisfactory explanation of this motto; some authors claim without evidence that the Ganganelli arms featured a running bear, but this is dubious.[94]
Peregrin9 apoſtolic9.[95]
96. Apostolic pilgrim Pius VI (1775–1799) Giovanni Angelico Braschi Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Pius VI by suggesting it is a reference to his long reign.[96]
Aquila rapax.
97. Rapacious eagle Pius VII (1800–1823) Barnaba Chiaramonti Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Pius VII by suggesting it is a reference to the eagle on the arms of Napoleon, whose reign as Emperor of the French took place during Pius' pontificate.[96]
Canis & coluber.
98. Dog and adder Leo XII (1823–1829) Annibale Sermattei della Genga Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Leo XII by suggesting the dog and snake are allusions to his qualities of vigilance and prudence, respectively.[97]
Vir religioſus.
99. Religious man Pius VIII (1829–1830) Francesco Saverio Castiglioni Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Pius VIII by suggesting it is a reference to his papal name, or the fact that he was not the first pope from his family.[98]
De balneis Ethruriæ.
100. From the baths of Tuscany Gregory XVI (1831–1846) Mauro, or Bartolomeo Alberto Cappellari Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Gregory XVI by suggesting it is a reference to his membership in the Camaldolese Order, founded in the thirteenth century in Fonte Buono, called Balneum in Latin, in Etruria.[99]
Crux de cruce.
101. Cross from cross Bl. Pius IX (1846–1878) Giovanni Maria Mastai Ferretti Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Pius IX by interpreting it as a reference to his difficulties ("crosses") with the House of Savoy, whose emblem is a cross. O'Brien notes, "A forger would be very disposed to chance some reference to a cross on account of its necessary connexion with all popes as well as the probability of its figuring, in some form or other, on the pope's arms."[100]
Lumen in cœlo.
102. Light in the sky Leo XIII (1878–1903) Gioacchino Pecci Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Leo XIII by interpreting it as a reference to the star on his arms. O'Brien notes this coincidence would be much more remarkable had the prophecies referred to sydus (star), as they did when describing this same device on pre-publication Pope Innocent VII's arms.[101]
Ignis ardens.
103. Burning fire St. Pius X (1903–1914) Giuseppe Sarto Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Pius X by interpreting it as a reference to his zeal.[102]
Religio depopulata.
104. Religion destroyed Benedict XV (1914–1922) Giacomo Della Chiesa Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Benedict XV by interpreting it as a reference to World War I and the Russian Revolution, which occurred during his pontificate.[103]
Fides intrepida.
105. Intrepid faith Pius XI (1922–1939) Achille Ratti Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Pius XI by interpreting it as a reference to his faith and actions during the reign of Benito Mussolini.[104]
Paſtor angelicus.
106. Angelic shepherd Ven. Pius XII (1939–1958) Eugenio Pacelli Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Pius XII by interpreting it as a reference to his role during the holocaust.[105]
Paſtor & nauta.
107. Shepherd and sailor Bl. John XXIII (1958–1963) Angelo Giuseppe Roncalli Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link the "sailor" portion of this motto to John XXIII by interpreting it as a reference to his title Patriarch of Venice, a maritime city.[106]
Flos florum.
108. Flower of flowers Paul VI (1963–1978) Giovanni Battista Enrico Antonio Maria Montini Proponents of the prophecies have attempted to link this motto to Paul VI by interpreting it as a reference to the fleurs-de-lis on his arms.[107]
De medietate lunæ.
109. Of the half moon[108][109] John Paul I (1978) Albino Luciani
De labore solis.
110. From the labour of the sun / Of the eclipse of the sun[110][111] Bl. John Paul II (1978–2005) Karol Wojtyła Proponents of the prophecies find significance in the occurrence of solar eclipses (elsewhere in the world) on the dates of John Paul II's birth (18 May 1920) and funeral (8 April 2005).[112] Other attempts to link the pope to the motto have been "more forced," included drawing a connection to Copernicus (who formulated a comprehensive heliocentric model of the solar system), as both were Polish and lived in Kraków for parts of their lives.[113]
Gloria oliuæ.
111. Glory of the olive. Benedict XVI (2005–2013) Joseph Ratzinger Proponents of the prophecies generally try to draw a connection between Benedict and the Olivetan order to explain this motto: Benedict's choice of papal name is after Saint Benedict of Nursia, founder of the Benedictine Order, of which the Olivetans are one branch.[114][112] Other explanations make reference to him as being a pope dedicated to peace and reconciliations of which the olive branch is the symbol.[115]
   In perſecutione extrema S.R.E. ſedebit.
In the final persecution of the Holy Roman Church, there will sit. In the Lignum Vitae, the line "In persecutione extrema S.R.E. sedebit." forms a separate sentence and paragraph of its own. While often read as part of the "Peter the Roman" prophecy, other interpreters view it as a separate, incomplete sentence explicitly referring to additional popes between "glory of the olive" and "Peter the Roman".[114]
   Petrus Romanus, qui paſcet oues in multis tribulationibus: quibus tranſactis ciuitas ſepticollis diruetur, & Iudex tremẽdus iudicabit populum ſuum.[116] Finis.
112. Peter the Roman, who will pasture his sheep in many tribulations, and when these things are finished, the city of seven hills [i.e. Rome] will be destroyed, and the dreadful judge will judge his people. The End.[117] Francis (2013–present) Jorge Mario Bergoglio Many analyses of the prophecy note that it is open to the interpretation that additional popes would come between the "glory of the olive" and Peter the Roman.[118][110] Popular speculation by proponents of the prophecy attach this prediction to Benedict XVI's successor.[114] Since Francis' election as Pope, proponents in internet forums have been striving to link him to the prophecy. Theories include a vague connection with Francis of Assisi, whose father was named Peter.[119]

The Prophecies in art, literature, and culture

[edit]

Novels

[edit]
  • Pope Patrick[120] is a novel about the then Pope John Paul II's supposed successor, the fictional Pope Patrick I. The novel assumes that 'Petrus Romanus', the last Pope in St Malachy's list, is to be regarded as some kind of unreal supernatural being, and that consequently Pope Patrick will be the last real Pope.
  • Glory of the Olive: A Novel of the Time of Tribulation[121] (first published in 2002) is a novel featuring the fictional Pope Peter II. "Glory of the Olive" is the Malachite attribute of the successor to the then Pope John Paul II.
  • The Roman: Peter II... The Last Pope?[122] is a novel featuring the fictional Pope Peter II as successor to the Pope Benedict XVI. The novel begins with the Malachite prophecy concerning Peter the Roman, the last Pope in the Malachite list.
  • The Third Secret[123] is a novel featuring the fictional Pope Peter II (originally Cardinal Valendrea), who is elected Pope after the death of the fictional Pope Clement XV.
  • The Devil Will Come (novel) by Glenn Cooper[124] is a novel which uses the Malachy Prophecy as a part of the storyline in the book which spans generations, leading to the "modern day" conclave to elect a new pope and the attempt to destroy the Catholic faith by an enemy of the church.
