Ignis Fatuus - Abysmal Grief

Motionless is the corpse in the grave

But flames from the ground seem to come out

In the churchyard tonight magic lights

I can see the spirits of the Dead wandering quiet…

Occult arts practised under their great light

To evoke the force trapped underground

Come to us, come to us

Arise!

Come to us tonight!

I feel a presence

Obscure eyes watching me

I am scarred by this new life

Ignis fatuus

Ignis fatuus

«In the chapel a portion of the marble floor

Had been torn up, for it was desired to touch

The naked earth with the bare feet, and draw her powers

Directly up from their volcanic stratum

In this sulphur the magick circle had been drawn

With a two-pointed stick, and the grooves thus made

Had been filled with charcoal powder

It was not a true circle, no figure of sanctity

And perfection might enter in that accursed rite…»
