Any Latinophones in this parish? Looking for translation of inscription from the cross commemorating 315 burials without coffins in one night in 1637. The inscription on this Plague Cross is: Plague An Dom 1637 Burial 315 L Hera nos Domino Though it might be Domina I don't see it as Libera nos Domine as the metal plaque nearby has it. (Lord deliver us) Goggle translates my reading as: Libera Hera nos Domino > Deliver us Mistress to the Lord libera Hera nos Domino > Deliver us to the Lord Mistress Libera Hera nos Domina > Deliver us Mistress I am assuming that the Mistress is "Mother Earth" or the plague. Gratias ago tibi, dum praecavens
