Faustus begin thine incantations Take good care to draw thy circle true By God must you prevail For if you fail these Demons make a meal of you Your soul shall be their meat A kingly feast for them to eat Beware your future at hand Alas for thou art dammed [Good angel] Faustus seek repentance Abjure this evil art Cease this wretched wickedness And cleans thy foolish heart For the evil that once served you Has made of you a slave And transformed your bed of roses To a premature grave Then in a mighty flash of light Before thee Mephistopheles appears [Faustus] I charge thee go and change thy shape For you fill my soul with fear Now swift-as-hell back to the fire Return an old franciscan friar [Mephistopheles] Mortal command me while you can For surely thou art dammed [Bad angel] Faustus be thou resolute In what thou wilst perform Ignore these righteous idiots Their trinity to scorn For years of depravation you receive eternal life But fame and wealth and maidens-fair Are by far the better price [Faustus] Temptations all around me Is there nowhere I can turn? Hellfire is all about me Now I know that I shall burn I face excommunication for the error Of my ways - to burn in hell for all my days Bell, book and candle, candle, book, bell Forwards and backwards to damn me to hell Jehova I beg thee have mercy on my soul Be gone foul beast that stands before me My God! The midnight hour chimes Oh lord have mercy he comes for me I haven't got much time I am awake this is no dream I cry - but terror takes my scream And now my future is at hand Also for I am dammed [Good angel] Think for just one moment And I'm sure that you will see The moral of this story That what shall be must be He who gives his soul to hell Must dare to pay the price He versed in divinity must Live a noble life Or else he is damned!
