【Vondel's Lucifer】 Joost van den Vondel (1587—1679) Doth fate decree that I must fall. Of rank and honors shorn, Then let me fall; but fall with this my crown, Upon my brow, this scepter in my grasp. With my own retinue of faithful troops, And with these many thousands on my side, thus to fall brings honor and shall shed. Nor hardship dire, Nor yet disaster nor anathemas. Shall I intimidate, or tame. Here is my Fatherland. Let all yield, Who will, not one foot shall I ever retreat.
