Ancient Languages - Latin to english


Expert: Maria - 1/15/2005

Question
Can you translate this to english please?

una infinitas
abominatio nascitur autumno
hic est tuum temptamen quod temptat tua potentia
viginti tres gradus ad summam potestatem

You are very kind.  Thank you.

Answer
Hello,

First of all I have to point out that this passage looks strange in Latin as it is not a classical quotation, but merely a kind of hodgepodge of strange ideas and grammar mistakes (see ‘tua potentia' which should be in the accusative)like the Prophecies of Nostradamus.

Anyway, here ‘s the literal translation into English:

“One infinity
Abomination (or 'horror') is born (or' begins') in autumn.
Here(or ‘this') is your  trial which tests your potential
Twenty three steps to  the greatest power”.

Best regards
Maria
