  Choir of the wise men:
  We thank Thee, O Lord, almighty God, which is and which was,
  that Thou hast taken unto Thee dominion and reignest.
  The peoples were grown impatient, then came thy judgement and the day of judging the dead and rewarding Thy servants, the prophets and the saints and all them that hold Thy name in honour, the small and the mighty.
  But also destroy them by whom earth has been defiled.
