Exordium Songtext
von Crusades

As far as Heaven, Hell their faces turn
From whom in length, depth, their paths extend
With sense, with mind, with reason, I deceive
That act, rule, reckoning may not comprehend
Beyond all lower, middle, and superl
That power, bulk, and multitude which tend Blind error, ruthless time, ungentle doom
Deaf envy, villain madness, zeal unwise
Hard heart, unholy craft, bold deeds begun
Shall never fill for one the air with gloom
Or ever thrust a veil before these eyes
Or ever hide from me my glorious sun
