| Apep defieth Asar
|
| This book of the most secret cult of the ruby star
|
| Given to none save the shameless in deed as in word
|
| No man shall understand this writing, too subtle for the sons of man
|
| The ruby star has shed its blood upon me
|
| That which is to be denied shall be denied
|
| That which is to be spat upon shall be spat upon
|
| Burnt in outer fire
|
| Awakened into life and into death
|
| The kindling of a great fire and a devouring
|
| I shall smite the altar with a scourge and blood shall flow
|
| The veil is called shame
|
| And shall comfort the heart of the secret stone with warm blood
|
| The watchers will drink there of
|
| I, Apep the Serpent am the infernal heart of Iao
|
| Isis shall await Asar
|
| And I am in their midst
|
| I am Apep O thou slain one
|
| Thou shalt slay thyself upon my altar
|
| I will have thy blood to drink
|
| And my children shall suck upon the wine of the earth which is blood
|
| Which raiseth up the black earth
|
| I fear nothing for I am nothing
|
| But me thou shalt fear
|
| My prophet within whose bowels I rejoice
|
| As I slay thee in my lust
|
| I will overcome thee
|
| New life shall illuminate thee with the light that is beyond the stars
|
| Thou shalt scream with the joy and the pain and the love
|
| But there shall be no sound heard but this my lion roar of rapture
|
| Yea, this lion roar of rapture |
