Note 9 — Chapter IV
Jeremiah Curtin translation
The translation of those four lines is:—
Star of the sea who nourished The Lord with thy milk, The seed of death engrafted by our first father, Thou didst crush.
The last line in the Polish if taken alone would mean, our first father, Skrushyla, and the wise Gomula takes it alone. Taken in connection with its pronoun and ending the compound Tys, the first word in the third line, it means: Thou hast crushed.
