Saint Crispina,
Before the Roman judge.
Saint Crispina,
From Christ her God
She would not budge.
Condemned to die,
Her God she blessed.
Condemned to die,
Before the blade
She stretched her neck.
New tyrants arise,
The Faith they threaten.

Holy Ælfred the Great, King of England, South Patron, pray for us sinners at the Souð, unworthy though we are!
Anathema to the Union!
