Le tiers climat sous Aries comprins,
L'an mil sept cens vingt & sept en Octobre:
Le Roy de Perse par ceux d'Egypte prins:
Conflit,mort,perte:à la croix grand opprobre.
Translation
(Van Berkel, 2002)
The third climate included under Aries
The year seventeen hundred and twenty seven, in October
The King of Persia captured by those of Egypt:
Conflict, death, loss: to the cross great shame.
Van
Berkel categorizes this quatrain as a year
quatrain.
The
lowest year number in the quatrains is the year 580, mentioned in
quatrain 06-02. The highest year number is the year 1999, mentioned in
quatrain 10-72. These numbers are smaller than 2242, the number of years
of the time span of the quatrains. This led to the "reference
number system".
The idea on which the reference number system is based, is that the
years, mentioned in the quatrains, are not years, but reference numbers
in the series of years between 1555 and 3797, the time span of the
quatrains.
The
fulfilment year of this quatrain is October 3282 ( 1555 + 1727).
The
words "the third climate, included under Aries" refer to
astrological indications regarding countries and regions.

Le tiers climat soubz Aries comprins,
L'an mil sept cens vingt & sept en Octobre,
Le Roy de Perse par ceux d'Egypte prins:
Conflit, mort, perte: à la croix grand opprobre.
Brind'Amour
connects the first line with the geographical/astrological system,
described by Ptolemy in the Almagest. He concludes that there has not
been a particular configuration in October 1727. An interpretation of
the second line as a reference to October 27, 1700 (Julian calendar)
also does not reveal a particular configuration.[1]

Translation

Das dritte Klima, das under dem Widder steht,
im Jahre 1727 im Oktober.
Der König von Persien wird durch die von Ägypten gefangengenommen.
Streit, Tod, Verlust! Für das Kreuz ein grosser Schimpf!
Wöllner
connects the first line with the geographical/astrological system,
described by Ptolemy, but connects this quatrain in one way or another
to Gaul, in this system ruled by Aries. Further, he discusses the rein
of the Persian Sjah Hussein (1694-1722). Regarding astrology, he
mentions a Solar Eclipse, which occurred on September 3, 1727 (Julian
calendar).[2]
