Et vidi caelum apertum, et ecce equus...

Et vidi caelum apertum, et ecce equus albus,
Et qui sedebat super eum, vocabatur Fidelis et Verax,
et cum iustitia iudicat et pugnat.
Et ipse calcat torcular vini
Furoris irae Dei onnipotentis.
Et habet in vestimento et in femore suo scriptum:
Rex regum et Dominus dominantium
Alleluia! Amen!
