Hades, Wealthy Father, King of the Dead, my lord, I implore you to grant me the power to communicate with the dead bound to the living world.
What would be the correct Latin Translation for the above sentence?
I would translate that as follows:
Pluto (Hades), Dives Pater (Dis Pater), Rex Mortuorum, domine mi,
te peto ut mihi cum mortuis alligatis ad terram viventium communicare
potestatem concedas.
The words in parenthesis are alternate ways of referring to Hades.
For some background, I would suggest this article,
