1812 (The Prophecy Fulfilled): The narrative reflects on the King’s earlier warnings, noting that “all that Henry had predicted has come to pass” regarding the instability of the southern faction. The chief instigators of the rebellion found themselves betrayed and abandoned by the same “perfidious wretches” they had led into revolt. Specifically, the text points to the defection of Bonnet, who was among the first to join Rigaud and declare himself against Alexandre Pétion. This internal collapse served as a moral lesson on the ultimate fate of those who draw the sword in an unjust cause. Sanders uses this fulfillment of the King’s “prophetic” words to validate the legitimacy and foresight of the Northern monarchy.
