Day of Wrath Page #4

And we must also stand together.

If Marte accuses me,

will you stand by me?

I promise.

You'll not let go of me?

We are tied together so closely,

we can never be parted now.

I believe happy days will come again.

Even if we cannot see them now.

As the son and

heir of the dearly departed.

I stand here, by his coffin

and offer you

his mother's, his wife's and my

own thanks for coming here today.

My heart is so full of grief that

God gave me a father

greater and better than most men.

Father.

You were such to me

that all my days

I ought to express it in word and in deed.

Now that you have passed away,

I am tormented by the grief I caused you.

If you were alive now

I would be a much better son to you.

Forgive me

for letting my feelings

have the better of me.

One word more.

A word, on behalf of the relatives.

According to custom,

I bear witness before God and man

that my father's sudden death

can be laid at the door

of no man or woman.

His wife was with him

when Death came for him.

And his mother and I were

with him when he expired.

Let us bless him who lies here.

Wait. I will speak now!

If his son will not tell the truth,

then his mother must.

My son lies on his coffin murdered.

And she who murdered him

sits there!

I claim a life for a life.

Don't believe her. I answer for his wife.

She is not responsible.

Every word I have said is true.

Believe me. Would I let my father

lie unavenged if...

Yes, you would.

For you are under her spell yourself.

With the aid of

the Evil One she ensnared you.

With the aid of the Evil One

she killed her husband.

I denounce her as a witch.

Let her deny it if she dares.

Gentlemen, let's look into this matter.

With the aid of the Evil One?

You heard the accusation.

So that the full truth may be known.

I demand...

That you lay your hand upon the dead

and take an oath.

Are you ready and willing for such a test?

I swear.

I testify... I testify...

So you have your revenge.

I killed you

with the Evil One's help.

And with the Evil One's help

I lured

your son into my power.

Now you know. Now you know.

I see through my tears,

but no one comes

to wipe them away.

Day of Wrath, for pity take

My sins away from Satan's grasp

And bear up my soul to Heaven at last.

Day of Wrath, hear our bidding,

Sorrowful, heavenly flood of tears,

Save us, Jesus, with your blood.
