Chapter 2 No.2

The Dominant Voice:

Anger implacable, brand with fire,

Sear out the soul of the bestial sire!

Impotent render the insolent boor-

Dead to the love and the life to endure!

Subdominant Voices:

Month of Mary, ye shall breed

Vengers out of the August seed,

Cradled hate of father-foe-

Grow, ye War-babes, grow, grow! III.

The Dominant Voice:

Miracle-May-month, fathered in death,

Bred in corruption to breathe new breath

Into foul body-dregs, breathe thy life

Into the hate-sired babes of strife!

Subdominant Voices:

Month of Mary, ye shall feed

Saviours from the Judas-deed-

Gods of life to quell that woe.

Grow, ye War-babes, grow, grow!
