Now comes the final era of the Sybil’s song;
The great order of the ages is born afresh.
And now justice returns, return of Saturn’s reign,
And now a new lineage is sent down from high heaven.

Background.
Medieval Christians read Virgil’s poem as a prophecy of the coming of Christ. The Augustan Age, although pre-Christian, was viewed as a golden age preparing the world for the coming of Christ. The great poets of this age were viewed as a source of revelation and light upon the Christian mysteries to come. (Wikipedia)
