I’ve no idea what’s going on here.

Hellblazer #183.

Update #1 with thanks to thehallofjudgment:

“Co iad ri luim an lair ? ” – “Who are they on the bare floor?”

“Bi Feoil Againn!” = “We shall have flesh again!”

This is the possessing soul speaking, a sort of a threat. John points out that they have their own problems to deal with, presumably he means the Soulherds on their way up from the petrol station. He could mean that the post is late, and the postman who is confronting him ought to be back to work.

“Cha bhi sinn an geimhlibh bais” = “We shall not be in the bonds of death”

The earth from their graves has power against them. Remember that this earth has held them “below” for ages. There is also the tale of Dracula, where the earth he was buried in is needed for him to rest.

Hellblazer #183

Update #1 from graycloak:

Sum amico huic domui  •  I am a friend to this house

I hope my dime-store Latin is at least somewhat accurate :/  The rest of it feels a little cobbled together:

  • Ancor, Anacor … these are two angels normally seen as part of a triad (at the very least. Sometimes even more). What happened to Anelos/Anylos?
  • Candones helosi … this is another angelic name/title (i think), and it comes from the Ars Notoria’s Oration of the Physical Art, which is about divining “perfect knowledge of any disease.” I have never seen this used outside this context, so I would love any references to other uses people might be able to share!
  • et vos eleutis phugori … I have no idea. I mean, et vos translates to “and you..” so, I assume eleutis phugori is the name of a spiritual entity, but can’t find any other references to it outside this comic (or any others inside the comic, for that matter).

Overall, this appears to be an invocation of 4 entities (angelic or otherwise) to either authenticate/vouch-for the claims of his incantation or to stand as judges of his supplication. That is, assuming “eleutis phugori” is another angelic/ethereal entity. As I said above, I haven’t been able to find references to it anywhere.

Exorcism spell.

“Exorcizamus te, omnis immundus spiritus, omnis satanic potestas, omnis infernalis adversarii, in nomine et virtute Domini (unidentified word/s)”

—-

Update #1 with thanks to nonestasylum:

Had some help from nonestasylum – ”Exorcizamus te, omnis immundus spiritus, omnis satanic potestas, omnis infernalis adversarii, in nomine et virtute Domini/Domine…”

Update #2 with some help from Super-wiki :

“Exorcizamus te, omnis immundus spiritus”
We exorcise you, every impure spirit

“ omnis satanic potestas, omnis infernalis adversarii”
every satanic power, every incursion of the infernal adversary

“in nomine et virtute Domini/Domine”
in the name and valor of The Lord(’s Prayer)

I Googled up the individual meanings of each of the Latin words (that wasn’t included in the translations in the Super-wiki page), and put them together to translate the last sentence.

Ahem.. we from the supernatural fandom know the whole exorcism rite by heart :p

Basically its the same exorcism used by the roman catholics and taken from a book, idk the name of the book but go on supernatural wiki and search for exorcism.

I’m from the SPN fandom as well, and also know the shortened form of the spell by heart.

I’ve never heard the last line used by Constantine used in SPN, though. But then again, my memory is pretty short.

I’m also aware that the spells are used by the Roman Catholics (and actually asked about five of my Catholic friends for help, but nothing on that). Unfortunately, Super-wiki isn’t very helpful with the last line of this, and I wanted to try and make doubly-sure I had the meanings as correct as possible. So, Google it is.

Google “Rituale Romanum .pdf” and there ull have the full ritual exorcism not the shortened hollywood version :p

Thanks, rudescience. I shall!
