     We will judge i.e. we faithful, angels, i.e. demons, i.e. because it were more reasonable for us to sin out of the brittle substance of the flesh which we have received, if we should sin, than it was for him [to sin] out of the subtle substance which he has received.

     Is and ro·fessatar ata ndóini aprisci, ⁊ is and molfait Dia, intan du·mbǽrtar fochaidi forru.

     It is then that they will know that they are frail men, and it is then that they will praise God, when tribulations are inflicted upon them.
