- address; speak to
Meaning
Dream addresses the souls of mortals and awakens their mind (LXXXVI.4). The dative identifies those addressed. Two lines later the same hymn speaks of silent disclosure, so this communication verb should be read alongside that deliberate contrast rather than made into a claim about ordinary audible speech alone.
