Gedæghwamlican hlaf

[edit]

Various sources show 'urne gedæghwamlican hlaf syle us todæg' in the Anglo Saxon Lord's Prayer, but translate it merely as 'daily loaf'. What happens to the tmesis 'hwam'? It's supposedly 'whom' but I don't see it in 'give us this day our daily bread'. http://bosworth.ff.cuni.cz/007336 Is this a simple variant of 'dæglic'?
