AGNUS DEI

To save us from our sad plight

Hiya ho ho

Florian Geyer leads our fight

Hiya ho ho

Peasants go ahead, attack
The tyrant's house burn and wreck

Hiya ho ho

Where did you learn this?
What is this song?

- A song from the German Peasants' War.
- Sing it again.

Defeat has come upon our kin

Hiya ho ho

But my grandson will live to win

Hiya ho ho

Do not sing this verse again. Understood?

- Take him away!
- Come on! Let's go!

"Woe to the sinful nation,
a people whose guilt is great

"a brood of evildoers,
children given to corruption!

"They have forsaken the Lord."

Tell them to leave us alone.

- What should I tell them?
- Not to make things hard for us.

If we lay a hand on a priest,
we can't go back, the women will kill us.

"Woe to the world for temptations to sin!

"For it is necessary that temptations come,

"but woe to the man
by whom the temptation comes!

"You carry out plans that are not mine,

"forming an alliance, but not by my Spirit,

"heaping sin upon sin.

"But if you resist and rebel,

you will be devoured by the sword.
For the mouth of the Lord has spoken."

Stand up.

- Get up!
- You idiot!

What are you doing, you beast?

Stop!

Come back!

You'll kill him, you fool.

Come on.

You can join them.

Sea of light of the Eternal Light

You are my golden treasure

When my tired hands cannot fight anymore

Raise your flag

Whores!

Killing a priest? You wretch.

"Then the Lord reached out his hand
and touched my mouth

"and said to me,

" 'Listen, my people,

I have put my words in your mouth.

See, today I appoint you
over nations and kingdoms

to uproot and tear down, to destroy
and overthrow, to build and to plant.”"

Those who are with me
will not be disappointed in you, Lord.

Those who hold my hand,
are holding your hand, God of armies."”

Here's your cassock, go.

"Those who are with me
will not be disappointed in you.

"Those who hold my hand,
are holding your hand, God of armies."”

The waves are tossing
my little ship around

I rest my head on your fatherly bosom

Don't leave me, my God

I rest my head on your fatherly bosom

Don't leave me...

Go away.

"The Son of Man did not come
to be served, but to serve."

Forget your old-world drills.

I don't mean to offend you,
but how did you become a commander?

You're not being wise. You let him go,
and bring me to trial in handcuffs.

You're not smart enough.

Yours is a funny organization, Father.

There are all sorts of people amongst you,
and you tolerate all sorts of things.

It may have taken you 2000 years,

but to tell you the truth,
I couldn't wait that long.

Not even if I belonged
to the triumphant church.

Put this away, then take them.

We're ready to go.

Giddy up.

What happened?

What's with her?

She needs water.

Stop!

Stop there!

Give me water. Quick.

"I will pronounce my judgments
on my people because of their wickedness

"in forsaking me,

"in burning incense to other gods

"and in worshiping
what their hands have made."

Firing at a priest, sonny?

Load your rifle first.

"The axe is already
at the root of the trees,

"and every tree
that does not produce good fruit

"will be cut down
and thrown into the fire."

Keep your bread.

And don't bless it, not with bloody hands.

You know what the Scriptures say,
Reverend,

"The Lord spits the lukewarm out."

The Reverend may not deserve this cassock.

Take it off!

Take it off!

"God, Lord of armies,

"you who examine the righteous

"and probe the heart and mind,

"let me see your vengeance on them,

"for the land is full of adulterers,

"because of the curse
the land lies parched,

"the pastures are withered,

"the prophets follow an evil course
and use their power unjustly.

"They burn incense to worthless idols,
which made them stumble in their ways,

"made them walk on roads not built up.

"And the Lord abandoned
his unfaithful servant.”

The Hungarian ruling class
is facing a difficult task once more.

Those who attack us,
attack the eternal law.

Let me introduce my comrades.

The two bravest. The only ones who remain.

Here are the prisoners.

Bring them up here!

What do you wish for, sinful man

With a soul so sorrowful

What are you bemoaning wistfully

With tearful eyes

As if divine providence

Was not watching over you

As if He was not watching your suffering

From the heavens

"Why then have these people turned away?

"They cling to deceit;
they refuse to return.

"I have listened,
but they do not say what is right.

"None of them repent of their wickedness,
saying, 'What have I done?'

"Therefore
I will give their wives to other men

"and their fields to new owners
for there is no peace.

"Are they ashamed?
No, they have no shame at all;

"they do not even know how to blush.

* I will take away their harvest,
declared the Lord."

Here. Take it.

For a thousand years on end

This has been the Magyars' land

Now the foe wants to destroy them

But the Almighty will defend them

Take her.

Here.

A hundred pieces must be cut out
from the body in such a way "

that the prisoner remain conscious.

To attain this, it is essential to leave
intact the brain that registers pain

and the heart
that supplies oxygen to the brain.

The prisoners must to be washed
and tied to the stake fully naked

so that every part of their bodies
is in full view.

The stake must be just high enough
for their heads to lean against it.

In this way,
the neck in its erect position will let

more blood pass through to the head,
which is bound to the stake.

The binding must be done
with strong ropes and nodes tied fast,

but such that
these will not constrain the blood flow.

After carefully selecting the tools
with which the sentence shall be executed,

we must thoroughly disinfect them.

Saws, axes, knives, pliers, pincers,
chisels come into consideration.

Excisions must not be done in haste.

The body will gradually adapt
to pain without fainting.

The process is best begun at the limbs,
that is, the hands and the feet.

Fingers should be nipped off
one by one, preferably using pliers.

Limiting or stopping bleeding
is a simple procedure.

A thick solution made of master-wort
is poured onto the open wound,

the active ingredient in the plant
will cause the blood vessels to contract,

thus, the loss of blood
will be insignificant.

A skilled executioner will complete
the excision of the 100 pieces in an hour,

and death will only occur
in the 80th to 85th minute.

After cutting off the limbs and stopping
the bleeding, there shall be a break,

and the condemned shall be made to talk.

He must be asked
whether he feels pain in his legs or arms.

They always say they feel no pain.

Talking is important, that is why
the tongue must not be torn out.

Talking gives endurance
and helps to maintain mutual contact.

After the break comes the trunk,

with the excision
of the left side of the chest.

Then come the protruding parts
of the head: the ears and the nose.

They eyes are put out last.

By the end of the 60th minute,

87 out of 206 bones
are left in the condemned's body

and after his eyes have been put out,
he'll live on for some 20 to 25 minutes.

Up until now, the most successful order
has been the following:

knuckles of the left hand,

metacarpal bones of the left hand,

metacarpal bones of the right hand,

wrist joint,

cubit bone, radius
and humerus of the left arm.

Tibia, fibula and femur.

Please get her here, sir.

Bring her here.

Please, sir, would you mind...
They are not married.

- Wed them.
- All right.

Bring them here.

At least
the child should have a lawful name.

Stop here.

Run!

Go.

Run.

"I am the Lord, your God.

"You shall have no other gods before me.

"You shall not make for yourself an image
in the form of anything in heaven above

"or on the earth beneath
or in the waters below.

"You shall not bow down to them
or worship them;

"for I, the Lord your God,
am a jealous God,

"punishing the children
for the sin of the parents

"to the third and fourth generation
of those who hate me,

"but showing love to a thousand generations
of those who love me

"and keep my commandments."

"Praise be to the Lord, because he has
come to his people and redeemed them.

"And you, my child,
you will go on before the Lord

"to prepare the way for him

"to give his people
the knowledge of salvation."

I confess to God Almighty...

I have fornicated...

I am truly repentant...

I beg for absolution...

I think you know, Reverend,
that we will execute your man.

Would you let him administer
the last rites?

Go ahead.

We ought to examine
what you have done here.

But we have no time. We must go.

It would be easiest to gun you all down.

It's not ethics that is stopping me,
nor your old Scriptures.

All who draw the sword
will die by the sword.

No, I couldn't stomach it, I think.

We'll be back. If not today, tomorrow.
I don't want people to call us murderers.

- May I speak?
- Go ahead.

You're being sentimental, comrade Kerekes.
They ought to be shot.

The revolution has failed.
These people will Kill for sure.

But you'll let them loose, I know.

For the time being, you're the commander.

If we were to vote, you would convince
everyone you were right.

You'll quote Rosa,

"Proletarian revolution is a form of fight
where victory is reached through defeats."

You ought to be brought to trial
for being an opportunist.

Violence must be met by violence.

Well, we must go.
Every man is needed in defeat.

Whose daughter are you?

I know you.

Remember something if you're so devout.

Remember for yourself and your child.

"The Son of Man will come
in his Father's glory with his angels,

"and then he will reward each person
according to what they have done.”

He will.

Reverend, with the help of God, we won.
Miklos Horthy of Nagybanya is our leader.

Hurray!

Here.

Get up.

Take her.

Get off the cart. Everybody, get off.

Stop. Our father, Arpad.

Our father, Arpad
For your people do not fear

They won't perish
If they haven't perished until now

Hey ho
Gone are all the sorrows and the pain

Hey ho
We are making merry once again

- Hurray!
- Hurray!

- Hurray!
- Hurray!

- Hurray!
- Hurray!

On your feet.

Fall in.

Strip to the waist.

Attention.

Right face.

Three paces forward.

Right turn.

Double up.

One, two...

Now play.

For a thousand years on end

This has been the Magyars' land

Now the foe wants to destroy them

But the Almighty will defend them

Hey ho,
Gone are all the sorrows and the pain

Hey ho
We are making merry once again

Greetings.

The frail viola's

Stem broke

My chagrin knows no...

Laudetur.

"You prepare a meal for me
in the presence of my enemies.

"My cup overflows."

The wind howls

"As I walk through valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no evil,

"for you are with me.
You prepare a meal for me

"in the presence of my enemies.
My cup overflows.

"Surely your goodness and love
will follow me all the days of my life."

The wind howls

Over Késmark

My dear country

Farewell

Follow me, soldiers!
Follow me, Hungarians!

Soldiers! Hungarians!

Forward!

The great Miklos Bercsenyi

Is weeping by himself

He has

No soldiers left

I swear by the Holy Crown of Hungary

that I will pass judgment
in good faith with a clear heart,

uninfluenced by passion,
in sober consideration of the law.

I swear.

So help me God,

I shall have no mercy
for the enemies of our kind.

- So I swear.
- We swear.

Bring him to me.

"Who is it you want?

"I told you that I am he.

"I have spoken openly to the world,
I said nothing in secret.

"You did not lay a hand on me then.

"But this is your hour,
when darkness reigns.

"The reason I came into the world
is to testify to the truth.

"Everyone on the side of truth
listens to me."

I accuse you of betraying
our 1000-year-old Holy Country.

Do you understand?

Quod est veritas?

"For false messiahs will appear
and perform great signs and wonders

"to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

"Wherever there is a carcass,
there the vultures will gather."

"Nation will rise against nation,
and kingdom against kingdom.

"There will be famines
and earthquakes in various places.

"Then you will be put to death,

"and you will be hated by all nations.

"But they shall proceed no further:

"for their folly
shall be manifest unto all men.

"There is nothing concealed
that will not be disclosed,

"or hidden that will not be made known.

"I tell you,
he will see that they get justice."

"Because the people have broken
my covenant and rebelled against my law.

They set up kings without my consent,

they choose princes without my approval.

The days of reckoning are at hand.

Because your sins are so many
and your hostility so great,

the prophet is considered a fool,
the inspired person a maniac.

The rebels are knee-deep in slaughter.
I will discipline all of them.

Woe to them,
because they have strayed from me!

Destruction to them,
because they have rebelled against me!

They make many promises,
take false oaths and make agreements;

therefore lawsuits spring up
like poisonous weeds in a plowed field."

"My joy is now complete.

"The one who comes from above is above all;

"Whoever has accepted it
has certified that God is truthful."

"This is what the Lord Almighty says:
I appointed you ruler over my people.

"I have been with you
wherever you have gone,

"and I have cut off
all your enemies from before you.

"Now I will make your name like the names
of the greatest men on earth.

"I will also subdue all your enemies.

"I declare to you
that the Lord will build a house for you."
