[PEOPLE]
Death to the tyrant!
He must go down!
Death to the tyrant!
He must fail!

[WOMAN]
His time has come.
Cursed be the evil one!

[MAN]
Antichrist, hear us now!
We will bring to an end…

[PROFESSOR PAULI]
…all thy evil temples on earth!

[MAN]
Soon the wrath of angels
are marching down your halls.

[PEOPLE]
Something's going on…

[WOMAN]
Forces of the Prince of Hell bring the tears unwept.

[SOLDIERS OF ANTICHRIST]
Shoot them down! Shoot them down!
Everyone!
Shoot them down! Shoot them down!
Everyone!

To you all is given cries of future words.
In the empty heaven – echoes left unheard.

[APOLLONIUS]
Ripples of anger, splashing of bloodshed
in the name of Caesar Seth.
Victory!
Scarlet glow above thee, dragon's eyes –
flames that I breathe…
