Adriug is the 1st.per. sing. pres. ind. of comp. formed by the pref. ad = Lat. ad,from riug = *rigu, or *regii, cognate with Lith. riszu (I bind).The root is rac cognate with Skr. root raq. Cf. Z., 428, Beit, z,Gesch. Deut. Spr., iv. 234, Kuhn's Zeit., xxiii. 213, and Stokes'Goid., p. 154.Indiu (to-day) = in-diu, of which in is the prep, in, now an,and dill the dat. sing, of dia (day), from stem *diva, connectedwith Lat. dies. Dia is now di in Di-luain (Monday), fcc.Niurt is the dat. sing, of nert (strength), now neart. Nert{= ner-t) is from the root ner (cf. hert = her-t from her), cognatewith Skr. nar, nara-s (man), Zend nar, nara (man), Gr. avr'ip(man) from stem avep, Sabin. nero-n (fortis) and 7ie7io (fortitudo).Cf Gaul. Nerto7narus and -nertus in Cobnertus. Nert is a neut.o-stem.Tren (strong), now treun. Tr^n (= *trcsn) and the compar.tressa, now treasa, are connected by Zeuss and Ebel with Gr.Opaarui, although contrary to rule, for 6 corresponds to Gael. d.Cf. Z., p. 37. Tre'ii is moi-e regularly connected with Ved. dhrshnu(bold, brave, courageous), Skr. dhrshta (insolent, bold). Cf Kuhn'sZeit., xxiii., p. 209.Toyairm (invocation), a neut. «-stem = * do-fo-gar-rnan (cfStokes' Goid., p. G4, and Z., p. 268), from the root gar, cognate withSkr. root gar, from which gr-nd-mi (I call), Zend gar (sing, extol),Gr. ytjpvi (speech) and yiipuoo (I speak), Lat. garrio (I^chatter),O.H.G. kirru (creak), Lith. gdrsas (voice). Cf Curt. Gr. Etym.,p. 177. Togairm is probably a shortened dative (for togarmim)standing in apposition to niurt. Cf Wind., Ir. Texts, p. 53.Trinoit, either for trinoite, gen. of trindoit ( = Lat. trinitas,gen. trinitat-is, triuity), or dative (cf. Wind. Ir. Texts) in appositionto togairm.Cretim, either the 1st per. sing. pres. ind. of cretim (I believe),formed by the pronum. suff. im from cref-, cognate with Skr.
Anuli/^iiii ('/ I'dtrick'a Hymn.•''•">craddhd (trusting), graddhana (faith), gruddadhaiul (1 believe),or the dat. of the noun cretern (belief, faith), in apposition toniitrt. Cf. Rys' Lectures, p. 72, Curt. Gr. Etym., p. 2o-i, andWindisch's Gramm., p. C)2, and Ir. Texts, p. 53.Treodataid, dat. sing, of treodatu (threeness), a derivative fromtri (three), cognate with Skr. root tri, trajas (three), Zend th)-i(three), Gr. Tpe??, Lat. tree. For suff. -adatii, cf. Z., p. 804. Insteadof the dat.-form treodataid, Windisch suggests the gen.-formtreodatad (of threeness) governed by noun cretim.Foisitin, which Stokes considers the correct word here (cf. "creteinoenatad cofoisitiu tredatad, belief of oneness with confession ofthreeness," in Goid., p. 101), is the dat. sing, of foisitiu (confession).Cf. Z., pp. 264, 266, 800. Foisitiu (confession), nowfaosaid, is a fem. li-stem, gen. fuisiten, dat, foisitin, ace.foisitin-n, formed by pref. /o, cognate with Gr. 'vtto, from rootsta, connected with Skr. root sthd, Gr.

Cf. Stokes' Fel. Oeng., p. 2.54.Dailis explained by Dr. Stokes (cf. Goid., p. 15.5) as gen. sing.of dal, probably cognate with Gr. SaiSdXo^, SaiodXfxa, and signifyingthe x'Miverse, Koa-fAO^, but rather, perhaps, to be read asdull, gen. of dul, a by-form of duil (element, creature). Cf Goid.,p. 155, and see dail in Wind. Worterbuch.Gene (of birth), for geine, gen. sing, of r/fi?! (birth), from rootgen, common to Gr., Lat., and Celt. Cf. Gr. 2nd aor. eyei'dfit^v andLat. gigno, genui. The Indo-Europ. root is gan.Crist (Christ) from Gr. XpLcrro^, Lat. Christus.Conabathius (with his baptism) = con-a-bathhis, of which theprep, con = Lat. co, con, a (his) = Skr. asya, and bathius is thedat. sing, of the 0. Gael, noun baithis (baptism), which, togetherwith its related words haithiu (I plunge), bddud (drowning),robaded (were drowned), and W. boddi (to drown), is connectedwith Gr. |8a0i/'?
