Watched The Exorcism of Emily Rose today... must do research for various other stuff.
Crux sancta sit mihi lux / Non draco sit mihi dux
Vade retro satana / Nunquam suade mihi vana
Sunt mala quae libas / Ipse venena bibas
"May the Holy Cross be my light / Let not the dragon lead me
Step back Satan / Never tempt me with vain things
What you offer me is evil / Drink the poison yourself."
Anyhoo, downloaded Let's Do It (Let's Fall In Love) by Alannis Morissette, the one in the De Lovely soundtrack. I really love this song... *electric eels, I might add to it... *sings**
Oh btw, I finished Good Omen's yesterday and oh my was it so hilarious! I love the two friends Crowley and Aziraphale! And Adam, the Adversary's son, make me go... 'Awwwww...'. Also, I love the dog Shadow... from yesterday! =D

She should bear for you while you are young,
It is right to make people.

Scarab inscription sent to Lady Tiye:
… the king’s great wife, Tiye, may she live,
The name of her father is Yuya,
The name of her mother is Tuya,
She is the wife of a mighty king.
I am your son who serves you, who exalts your name;
Your power, your strength, are in my heart.
You are the living Aten whose image endures.

Who gives direction to courtiers
Wise in speech, there’s nothing I ignore.
Priests prayer to Amun:
Pilot who knows the water,
Helmsman of the weak,
Who gives bread to him who has none,
Who nourishes the servant of his house.
I take not a noble as protector,
I associate not with a man of wealth,
I place not my share in another’s care,
My wealth is in the house of my lord.
My lord is my protector,
I know his might, to wit:
A helper strong of arm,
None but he is strong,
Amun who knows compassion,
Who hearkens to him who calls him,
Amun-Re, the King of Gods,
The Bull great of strength, who loves strength.
Furnish your station in the Valley,
The grave that shall conceal your corpse;
Set it before you as your concern…
Emulate the great departed.
Who are at rest within their tombs.

Crime never lands its wares;
In the end it is justice that lasts.
