(voice from above:)
Hieronymus! Hieronymus Bosch! Mammon!
(soloists and orchestra:)
Ecce torpet probitas,
virtus sepelitur;
fit iam parca largitas,
parcitas largitur;
verum dicit falsitas,
veritas mentitur.
(Refr.)
Omnes iura ledunt
et ad res illicitas
licite recedunt.
Regnat avaritia,
regnant et avari;
mente quivis anxia
nititur ditari,
cum sit summa gloria
censu gloriari.
(Refr.)
Omnes iura ledunt
et ad prava quelibet
impie recedunt.
Multum habet oneris
do das dedi dare;
verbum hoc pre ceteris
norunt ignorare
divites, quos poteris
mari comparare.
(Refr.)
Omnes iura ledunt
et at mala devia
licite recedunt.
