Ad. arpharazōn azgaranādu avalōi-{men >>}si “‽ was waging war‽ Powers on”

[< Previous Phrase] Lament of Akallabêth (first draft) [Next Phrase >]


The first draft of the 3rd phrase of the Lament of Akallabêth (SD/311). It differs from the final version primarily in grammar. It has a difficult-to-interpret form azgaranādu of the verb azgarâ-. See the entry to that verb for possible interpretations. The last word avalōi-si seems to be the draft-dative plural form of Avalô “Power, God”, changed from the draft-instrumental plural form avalōi-men.
