Mystifier Caerimonia Sanguilentu (Goetia) Lyrics

Trois-Échelles - magician who serves Charles IX
He was accused of witchery by inquisitors
He confessed to the king that he given himself
Over to a demon who enable him to perform prodigies
He asked to the king: "am I forgaven?
The king forgave him for his misdeeds

But, if he had a relapse
The king promised his cure on the gallows
He did a relapse and was hanged in due course
He swore to the king avenge by the uncontrollable
Power of Black Magick
A malign disease will abate the king Charles IX

The years were going and the king is on dying bed
Praying against death
On the twenty eighth day of May
Fifteen seventy four
Near the dying hour
The king consults necromancers about his disease
He said: "remedy or magic either
will be able to cure me!!"

The necromancers examined Charles IX
And were troubled with him
They thought the king was bewitched
By a malign work
Only the b_____ Ceremony can reveal
The cause of disease
But there's hardly chance
To the king can recover

Trois-Échelles did foresee his doom
Now he regresses to vengeance from the king
He says: "no matter what they do,
I will carry him!!"

The necromancers perform a ceremony at
Midnight in the presence of the king
A young jew is brought all dressed of
Body linen prepared to communion
On an altar in which the image of Satan
Treads on a crucifix
A necromancer consecrates two black and white hosts

The white host is given to the jew
After he is thrown at stars from the altar and
He is decaptated by a necromancer
Now his head is placed upon the black host on the paten
A demon is invoked to answer through jew's head

The necromancer asks Charles IX to put
A question mentally to the head
A moment of panic and expectation
The deadlips agitate and says: "vim patior"
Finalle the answer is given menteally
To the king who falls back and shouts:
"Remove this head from here now!!"

On the following day at dying hour Charles IX repeats
Those words said by him in the ceremony
In the hands of death, he sweats blood and dies
Trois-Échelles' prediction was accomplished
