I brought back the fire-hearth of Daudoh from there
And hauled it before the face of Chemosh in Kerioth
Those sacred stones as at Scone we carried off
What prisoners were taken we married to the glaive
They the graveless are fed to flames at His graven feet
Until their bones black as ravens at touch fall to ashes
Such as are packed into sackcloths and spread onto grasses
Idols come down crashing, the sky sags with ceaseless lashing
By the gnashing teeth of rabid Gods, we in battle become unstoppable
Mighty force meets immovable object, killing obstacles making possible.
