THE CHARGE OF THE DARK BRIGADE

 

The scroll of the seven seals

Rested in God's right hand

Until he bade his son

The Lion of Judah

To break the first seal

And the Lamb did so

And from the broken seal

Appeared a white horse

Bearing the conqueror

Carrying a bow,

And wearing a victor's crown

 

God then bade his son

The Lion of Judah

To break the second seal

And the Lamb did so

And from the broken seal

Appeared a red horse

Bearing the warrior

Carrying a sword

And wielding the power

To take peace from the world

 

God then bade his son

The Lion of Judah

To break the third seal

And the Lamb did so

And from the broken seal

Appeared a black horse

Bearing the bringer of famine

Carrying a set of scales

         

Finally, he bade his son

The Lion of Judah

To break the fourth seal

And the Lamb did so

And from the broken seal

Appeared a pale horse

Bearing a rider called death
