Penalized - Attic

13 girls side by side in line

One of the sisters committed crime

Foretold by voices from on high

Mother’s revelations never lie

Margaret:

«With devious lies, Satan creeps into your minds

Soon we will see, who’s not who she claims to be

Take this knife and get undressed

Incise the holy cross on your chests

God strengthens the innocent

Scourge yourself and face the torment

I won’t abandon you to lust and lechery

And what I do, hurts me more than it hurts you»

Margaret:

«Down on your knees

You will bleed

Like he did on Calvary

By God’s holy laws you despise

You shall be penalized»

Divine epiphany or insane bigotry?

No one ever saw what Margaret claimed to see

Distress behind enclosure

One sister could stand the pain no longer

Margaret:

«Take her to the cellar, I know what she needs

Ordeal by boiling water, she will concede»

Margaret:

«Down on your knees

You will bleed

Like he did on Calvary

By God’s holy laws you despise

You shall be penalized»
