After a long year
Azothien forgets his origin
the people now call him John
in recognition of the Gospel

He began to think
in the miserable ways of common people
at Mass he hurries enthusiastically
to the Crucifix so that
he could eagerly pray

with his brothers and sister
they race for knowledge of the Holy Scripture
so that good believers
in life they would become

Uncontrolled by him, however
no one, not even the Pope himself
can erase his noble dynasty
his pattern of behavior

the evening was sinister
when the storm bent the trees
his pious father urged John
to kneel under the cross and pray

there flashed however in Azothien's eyes
when in his thoughts he caught
sight of his subservience
and ecstatically he slashed
both of his parents' throats like pigs

the next day over the corpses
he grieved with his siblings
from last night
he suffers a peculiar amnesia

Uncontrolled by him, however
no one, not even the Pope himself
can erase his noble dynasty
his pattern of behavior
