The nature does not suffer from old age

Tue Oct 26, 2004, 2:25 PM
Naturam non pati senium

Heu quam perpetuis erroribus acta fatiscit
Avia mens hominium, tenebrisque immersa profundis
Oedipodioniam volvit sub pectore noctem!
Quae versana suis metiri facta dorum
Audet, et incisas leges adamante perenni
Assimilare suis, nulloque solubile saeclo
Consilium fati perituris alligat horis.

Alas! How persistent are the errors which drive man's straying mind to exhaustion. How profound the darkness that swallows him when he broods in his heart over Oedipean night. In his madness he dares to measure the gods' deeds by his own, and to liken his own laws to those carved in everlasting adamante. He binds to his own perishing hours of the decree of Fate that cannot be undone by passing ages.

A translation made by J.Milton
Could the translated greek/latin into english influence a poet's writing and meaning?
