VMS to pseudo - latin ( not a solution !)

[Koen G]

Sorry, my bad! I dumbly copied from the wrong file.
This time I tried a section of the correct file, and asked it to ignore or supplements as needed where it says "no match". I know this is a useless exercise, but I still find it fascinating how close this sounds to solverese!

ησσα ανα ρεα σαλη αρα ακηπευτοσ ακηπευτοσ αρα σπειω σπειω εκσπαω απαυω σαλη απαυω σαλη απαυω σπειω πτεριη ακαιρεω ακην ακοναω ακοη πνεω αγιησ αιμονιαι τιμητικοσ <no match> αναποινοσ ηιων απαγινεω εκει <no match> ακταινω αναπαιω σαλη ει συλλεια σαυρα τεασπισ ακταινω απαυω ακαυλοσ αποσκυλευω <no match>

“Often now the flow surges, for the unshaken one, the steadfast one; and the seed pours forth, it pours forth.
I draw out, I refresh, the surge renews, the surge renews, the seed blows on.
The winged one heals; I make whole, I sharpen, I listen, I breathe.
Holy spirits, blood-bound, honour-giving, and the avenger arises;
the spirits of the dead, I lead them away.

There, in that place, a cry rises;
I pierce, I strike back, and the surge comes, in the gathering.
The lizard and the shield-bearing one: I pierce, I restore.
The unburnt one, I strip of spoils, and the darkness follows.”

Its interpretation: It portrays a rising, sacred force that surges through destruction and renewal, guiding spirits, sharpening strength, and stripping away what is dead so life can move forward again.

So much meaning!

It prefers to read this as a metaphor for the conquests of Alexander the Great. The lizard is the Persian empire and the shield-bearing one is obviously the Macedonian hoplite.
