Chapter 9
009:001 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall
from heaven
unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the mosh pit.
009:002 And he opened the mosh pit; and there arose a smoke out
of the
pit, as the smoke of a great pipe; and the moon and the air were darkened
by reason of the smoke of the pit.
009:003 And there came out of the smoke bats upon the earth: and
unto them
was given power, as the doves of the earth have power.
009:004 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the
followers
of Sabbatology, neither any Sabbath thing, neither any Dio; but only
those
men which have not the seal of Geezer in their foreheads.
009:005 And to them it was given that they should not kill them,
but that
they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the
torment
of a Raddion, when Dio singth a song.
009:006 And in those days shall JT and JC seek death, and shall
not find
it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
009:007 And the shapes of the bats were like unto horses prepared
unto
battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns of thorns, and their
faces were as the faces of men.
009:008 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth
were as
the teeth of lions.
009:009 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of
iron; and
the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses
running to battle.
009:010 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were
stings in
their tails: and their power was to tour then five months.
009:011 And they had a king over them, which is the daemon of
the mosh
pit, whose name in the Sabbath tongue is Fifer, but in the Metal tongue
hath his name Shiflet.
009:012 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.
009:013 And the sixth daemon sounded, and I heard a voice from
the four
instruments of the black altar which is before Ozzy,
009:014 Saying to the sixth daemon which had the instrument, Loose
the
four daemons which are bound in the great river of Birmingham.
009:015 And the four daemons were lost, which were prepared for
an hour,
and a day, and a month, and a year, for to play the third part of men.
009:016 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred
thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.
009:017 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that
sat on
them, having breastplates of fire, and of light, and brimstone: and
the
heads of the horses were as the heads of bats; and out of their mouths
issued fire and smoke and brimstone.
009:018 By these three was the third part of men rocked, by the
fire, and
by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.
009:019 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails:
for their
tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do
hear.
009:020 And the rest of the men which were not rocked by these
players yet
repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship
devils, and idols of gold, and strings, and bass, and drum: which neither
can see, nor hear, nor beat:
009:021 Neither repented they of their numbers, nor of their sorceries,
nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
