Dominus Dominantium - Act VIII-Fall Ov Lucifer (Corrupted Wisdom Ov Thy Splendor)
You were an anointed guardian cherub
I placed you; you were on the holy mountain of God
In the midst of the stones of fire you walked
You were blameless in your ways
From the day you were created
Till unrighteousness was found in you
In the abundance of your trade
You kept me relegated, you wanted to keep me subdued
You wanted to keep control of all creatures
But I am here To dominate and destroy your own creation
You were filled with violence in your midst, and you sinned
So I cast you as a profane thing from the mountain of God
And I destroyed you, Oh guardian cherub
From the midst of the stones of fire
Your heart was proud because of your beauty
You corrupted your wisdom for the sake of your splendor
I cast you to the ground
You kept me relegated, you wanted to keep me subdued
You wanted to keep control of all creatures
But I am here To dominate and destroy your own creation
I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven
And I saw an Angel come down from heaven
Having the key of the bottomless pit
And a great chain in his hand
And he took the dragon that old serpent
Which is the devil and Satan
And he bound him thousand years
Cast him into the bottomless pit
Closed and sealed the Gates upon them
That he should deceive the people no more
Till the thousand years were fulfilled
For after that he must be loosed
And when the thousand years are expired
Satan shall be loosed out of his prison
And shall go out to deceive the people
In the four quarters of the earth
Which is the devil and Satan
And he bound him thousand years
Cast him into the bottomless pit
Closed and sealed the Gates upon them
And they compassed the tents of the Saints about
And the beloved city
But fire came down from God out of heaven
Et vidi thronum magnum candidum et sedentem
Super eum a cuius aspectu fugit terra et caelum, terra et caelum.
Et vidi mortuos, magnos et pusillos
Stantes in conspectu throni et libri aperti sunt
And the devil that deceived them
Was cast into a lake of fire and brimstone
Where the beast and the false prophet are
And shall be tormented
(Day and night for evermore)
Then I saw a great white throne
(And him who was seated on it)
The earth and the heavens fled from his presence
(And there was no place for them)
And I saw the dead, Both great and small
Standing before the throne, and books were opened
In the lake of sulfur and fire
Where the tormented souls will dwell
It will be heard across the sea and the earth (“The fall of Lucifer”)
Now, here I stand
In this deep and dark abyss
My desire of inflicting death and destruction upon humanity was crushed
But I will not bow to God
I will not get on my knees
I will be here, waiting, patiently, for all the eternity if I have to
My army of demons will rise again, as we are legion
And we will bring hell and torment to the world
This hellfire will burn
Forever, and ever
You kept me relegated, you wanted to keep me subdued
You wanted to keep control of all creatures
But I am here To dominate and destroy your own creation
