| Deficient in body, depraved in soul
|
| A sterile spirit with unholy goals
|
| «O Lord, in churches when I preach
|
| I deliver a scornful speech»
|
| Christ’s holy work
|
| «And after that I tell my tales
|
| Of patriarchs and cardinals»
|
| Stir them to devotion, pray for their sins
|
| «Bring forth my crystal stones
|
| Crammed full of cloth and fake vestige
|
| As I confess… Radix malorum est cupiditas»
|
| Wretched impure ghoul
|
| Masquerading as trustworthy
|
| Looks deceive, «I am The Pardoner
|
| I will preach against the vice
|
| Which that I use, o avarice
|
| Fearing me
|
| Now take heed and part with gold»
|
| «I, depraved in soul
|
| A sterile spirit with unholy goals
|
| Posses a bone that heals dying animals, a miracle»
|
| «And after that I tell my tales
|
| Of patriarchs and cardinals»
|
| Stir them to devotion, pray for their sins
|
| Hold out my hands of faith
|
| Pray for their sins
|
| The wonders of the Holy Ghost
|
| Sacrificing men, leaving widows in the village
|
| «I, the wretched impure ghoul
|
| Masquerading as trustworthy
|
| Looks deceive, «I am The Pardoner
|
| I will preach against the vice
|
| Which that I use, o avarice
|
| Fearing me, now take heed»
|
| «Bring forth my crystal stones
|
| I take from those without a coin
|
| I preach and beg, I must have florins
|
| Fine wine for me
|
| Child starvation
|
| Sons of sin, let them sleep
|
| «Hearken and lord, to conclude
|
| No pardon will save your soul»
|
| «I am a fraud
|
| I preach for nothing but covetise»
|
| «My tale I will begin» |
