Good Friday

Dies irae, dies illa
solvet saeclum in favilla,
teste David cum Sybilla.

Quantus tremor est futurus,
quando judex est venturus,
cuncta stricte discussurus. ---Excerpt from the Dies Irae


The clock struck three in the afternoon. And thus, the prophecy has been fulfilled. Christ has died. A day of mourning. A day of solitude. A day of repentance.
