Pray for Dicu and (Mael) ODRAN, the wright. There are three interesting points about this inscription

2nd That the names of two separate persons are commemorated in one legend.
3rd That the epithet SAIR ( Welsh SAER ) meaning wright carpenter or artisan is added to distinguish the second person mentioned in the description whose name may have been Maelodran.- Informant
