Note to Anon Mgr 47VII

[4] Dóminus técum ‘the Lord is with you’: This is part of the Hail Mary (Ave Maria). The rhyme -iek- : -éc- shows that lieki ‘play’ must have been pronounced with [ie:] because it is unlikely that the Lat. vowel would have been diphthongised (see Björn K. Þórólfsson 1925, xiv-v). For the identical macaronic rhyme see Lil 99/8.
