Latin

Scitur ex cabala per mysterium partis septentrionalis cur iudicabit deus saeculum per ignem.

Copy-text: Farmer 1998, line 27331

English

From the Cabala, through the mystery of the northern region, we learn why God will judge the age by fire.

'north' and 'fire' were in medieval Kabbalism most often tied to the fifth sefirah, God's judgment or power (farmer1998:27363).
