In Nomine Babalon, CIV

CIV

The kings of the earth shall be kings forever!

The strong ones shall rule and the weak shall never.

From the sign of the ram does the Emperor look on,

I raise up the cup and adore Babalon!

In Nomine Babalon, XXVI

XXVI

In temples they’re blowing the horn of the ram

As black brothers prepare to slaughter the lamb;

Submitting to death as they smear the pylon!

I raise up the cup and adore Babalon!

“This latter principle is represented in four ways; by a hawk Crowned, or the HORUS BAIE; by a human-headed hawk; by a Bennu bird or by a ram. The BAIE (spirit) can operate through the egg-like principle contained in the AB and the KA (human Ego) through the concave principle.” [via]
