Ancient Rites - QUEST FOR BLOOD (Le Vampire)

"Inspired by the Great French Poet BAUDELAIRE.
Very 19th Century like indeed.
Vampires Are Forever but Somehow seemed
to be more Alive and Real during the Golden Age of Poetry and Literature.
First (French) part is directly taken from the master's Work
"Le Vampire"."

Toi, Qui comme un Coup de Couteau
Dans mon Coeur Plaintif est Entrйe
Toi, Qui Fort comme un Troupeau
De Dйmons, Vins, Folle et Parйe
To make out of my Humiliated Spirit
Your bed and your Domain
Honourless Croock to Whom
I am Connected Like a Slave to his
Chain, Like a stubborn Player to the
Game, Like a Drink to the Battle,
Like a Maggot to the Corpse
Maudite! Maudite Soit-Tu!
I have prayed the Rapid Sword
To Conquer my Freedom
Hйlas! The Poison and the Sword
