Interesting example. The Latin is much easier to parse than the English "translation" for this sentence. Actually I often tell people that a classics class is probably a better introduction for parsing than most linguistics 101 classes I've seen, which are usually a little bit airy.
Theory is definitely good, but it can't replace stepping through a lot of examples. Classics is probably the best place to get that.
Anyway. The Latin is probably easier to parse than the English "translation", since the translation here is hardly natural. I'd suggest that Classics translation have a particular tradition of being faithful to the syntax of the original.
The English-like version is still wrong, and I'm interested to dig through what's gone wrong with it. But it's a much better parse than the tool was capable of producing for the Latinglish original.

Compare the parses for the original:

And what I would say is a more English-like version:
