Verdelet Lyrics

Inspiring men to envy
Muder and vanity
Nurturing conceit an pride

Hollow inside but dreaming
I curse this world
That it should keep turning

I curse this God
Who decrees that I should die
I will give you Hell
Avail the sins of the past

I curse this God
I will give you Hell

That it should keep turning
After I have passed away

Do you recognise me?
As I wake you from your sleep
Open your eyes
Open your eyes

Open your eyes
Do you recognise me?

Nymphets demand coition
Aching for penetration
On this solstice night
A catastrophic cadence

Nymphets demand coition
Aching for penetration

Cover art for Verdelet lyrics by Akercocke

The verdelet is the master of ceramonies in hell, this song i think is about him preparing to "welcome" new souls into hell, and his contempt for the world of men.

Cover art for Verdelet lyrics by Akercocke

"Verdelet" is a term of the same punishment for a deed = arm for an arm, tooth for a tooth, just like the code of Hammurabi.

The lyrics here clearly detail a man who is punished for an absurd reason by zealots, only to return and exact revenge.

Oh, no! Never mind that. I was thinking of the concept of Lex Talionis, which is "eye for an eye, etc..." Sorry!
