i just wanna find out the word 'of'

or if u guys could help....

translate 'to heal by the hands of angels'

thanks...

‘ab’.

arguspersicus SG

angelus is the base form of the word

you need to find the genitive plural form (genitive denotes possession I think) of angelus

for e.g. by the hands is manibus (albative, plural)
of the hands is manuum (genitive, plural)
