Ekúl Kristdr 2III/3 — mildingr ‘the prince’

Hirð lýtr himna dýrðar
hrein Máríu sveini;
môtt viðr mildingr dróttar
— maðrs hann ok goð — sannan.

Hrein hirð dýrðar himna lýtr sveini Máríu; mildingr dróttar viðr sannan môtt; hann [e]s maðr ok goð.

The pure retinue of the glory of the heavens [ANGELS] bows to the son of Mary [= Christ]; the prince of the host [= God (= Christ)] achieves true power; he is man and God.
