“Even the beautiful must perish! That which overcomes gods and men Moves not the armored heart of the Stygian Zeus. Only once did love come to soften the Lord of the Shadows, And just at the threshold he sternly took back his gift. Neither can Aphrodite heal the wounds of the beautiful youth That the boar had savagely torn in his delicate body. Nor can the deathless mother rescue the divine hero When, at the Scaean gate now falling, he fulfills his fate. But she ascends from the sea with all the daughters of Nereus, And she raises a plaint here for her glorious son. Behold! The gods weep, all the goddesses weep, That the beautiful perishes, that the most perfect passes away. But a lament on the lips of loved ones is glorious, For the ignoble goes down to Orcus in silence. Nänie”

“The holy one reveals,​ The demon child conceals. By the twins, the soul temple’s key be obtained To unlock the way to the land untamed. Goddess of dark and soulless night, Open the gate as Lunella loses sight. Life of the loved one, key to the dark, Eternal darkness, universal war. Loved one’s life for the gate to Sheol. Complete the cycle for the savior of old.​”
