- Mise
Meaning
Mise is called holy, well-hallowed, and an unspeakable queen at XLII.3, in a hymn that also names Dionysos and Iakchos. Her name should remain separately retrievable while the changing divine designations are read together. The sequence does not authorize erasing her name or resolving every identity question through a single English pronoun.
