the Holy Virgins, and of all the Saints, together with the
Holy Elect of God, may he, Bernard Fresenborg, be damned!
"We excommunicate and anathematize him from the threshold of
the Holy Church of God Almighty. We sequester him, that he
may be tormented, disposed, and be delivered over with Dathan
and Abiram, and with those who say unto the Lord, 'Depart
from us, we desire none of thy ways;' as a fire is quenched

"May the Father, who creates man, curse him!
"May the Son, who suffered for us, curse him!

"May all the Angels, Principalities and Powers, and all

"May he be cursed in eating and drinking, in being hungry, in
