Sanskrit cluster (hard to verify nuances)


Vah! Suvarn Sur!

Sanskrit 'vah' = to flow, carry, lead, transport, experience, take in marriage, convey in carriage (imperative directed at god?? why separate exclamation marks? announcing him?)

it's not 'go, sir' it's more like 'behold, a god'? cf the Sirens watching the viceregal cavalcade U245&c

Sanskrit: svarNa(स्वर्ण)/ Suvarna means 'gold' in Sanskrit, joining 'Su' (beautiful) and 'varna' (color). In the Mahabharata, Suvarna was the daughter of Ikshvaku (so, feminine?)

Sanskrit sur: sun, god, sage

Sanskrit Suvarn sur: 'god of good shape' (ie, golden)
sovereign sir


Scatter brand to the reneweller of the sky, thou who agnitest!

fdv: "Scatter fire to [...] of the sky." (imperative)

longshot: scatterbrain (wrong syntax)

Danish brand: a fire
firebrand = torch, agitator
Ibsen's "Brand" heroic outsider idealist

why "to"? set fire to?

renewer, renewal
newel: in architecture, the pillar forming the centre from which the steps of a winding stair radiate (U666: 'staircase...treads and risers, newel, balusters and handrail') so, one who holds up the sky-- ie, Atlas?
so is this reneweller the sun, or something the sun shines on??

"thou" imperative

ignites
Sanskrit agni: fire
Agni: Hindu god of fire
obsolete agnition: recognition

Agnus Dei (Christ as Lamb of the Sacrifice)


Dah! Arcthur is coming! Be!

Sanskrit dah: to burn, scorch ("Vah! ...Dah! ...Be!")

fw1 had "Arcthuris comeing!"
Greek arcturos: guardian

Arthur
author

'be' = pray (Scandinavian languages)


Verb imprincipiant through the entrancitive spaces!

Vulgate New Testament John 1:1: 'In Principio erat Verbum': 'In the beginning was the Word'

the verb 'to be'?

imprint
incipient (cf U122: "—Incipient jigs. Sad case.")

fw1 had "umprincipiant... trancitive "

entrance, entrancing
intransitive verb

'verb' = time, vs 'spaces'?


Kilt by kelt shall kithagain with kinagain.

fdv identical: "Kilt by kelt shall kithagain with kinagain."

AngloIrish accent: kilt: killed
kilt = plaid Scottish men's skirt

celt: prehistoric chisel/axe

Tintagel, Cornwall: site of Mark's castle and birthplace of Arthur (a 'rotten borough' before 1832) tinTADGEuhl

(why no comma?)

salve = ointment
