A yawning cave, dark and endless nSwelling barks of frenzied rage nWarder of the gates of Hades nJailer of the dead nnIn the shadowed gulf of doom nBeware the cursed Cerberos nDreaded hound who has no pity nLies in wait and eats them up nShakes the ends of the Earth nWith barks from his three throats nBristling snakes upon his necks nThe blood of men enshrouds his coat nnLying in the darkened threshold nReared up with all mouths wide nScattering bones before him now nAblaze his blood red eyes nnGrisly death God nHound of the pit
