00:00:30,802 --> 00:00:33,602
Under Lord Stefan,

4
00:00:34,603 --> 00:00:41,703
Prince of Transylvania, there lived
the two Cossacks, Ivan and Petro.

5
00:00:46,604 --> 00:00:50,104
King Stefan campaigned against
a Turkish pasha, and proclaimed

6
00:00:50,305 --> 00:00:56,805
that if some brave man could be found
who'd bring him that pasha dead or alive,

7
00:00:57,206 --> 00:01:03,106
he would pay him alone as
much as he paid his whole army.

8
00:01:12,207 --> 00:01:16,107
Ivan caught the pasha,
took the king's reward,

9
00:01:16,308 --> 00:01:21,208
and divided it equally with
Petro on that very day.

10
00:01:27,509 --> 00:01:33,309
Petro could not bear that Ivan
had been so honoured by the king,

11
00:01:33,610 --> 00:01:36,810
and hid deep in his soul
a lust for vengeance.

12
00:01:44,911 --> 00:01:50,111
The two knights were journeying
to the lands granted by the king,

13
00:01:50,512 --> 00:01:55,612
beyond the Carpathians.

14
00:01:56,203 --> 00:02:01,213
Between the mountains drops a chasm,
and the path twists just above it.

15
00:02:01,454 --> 00:02:04,614
Ivan's horse cautiously stepped forward...

16
00:02:05,705 --> 00:02:12,115
Petro, riding near, trembled
and caught his breath with joy.

17
00:02:19,817 --> 00:02:24,317
Petro glanced around, and pushed
his sworn brother into the chasm.

18
00:02:25,018 --> 00:02:30,218
All his goods Petro took for himself,
and began to live like a pasha.

19
00:02:32,259 --> 00:02:34,319
And Petro died.

20
00:02:35,020 --> 00:02:40,300
God summoned the souls of the two
brothers, Petro and Ivan, for judgement.

21
00:02:41,501 --> 00:02:45,901
"A great sinner is this man!" said God.

22
00:02:46,402 --> 00:02:50,502
"Ivan! You choose his punishment!"

Terrible Vengeance

25
00:03:19,005 --> 00:03:22,705
Long did Ivan ponder,
devising the punishment,

26
00:03:23,206 --> 00:03:24,506
and finally, he said:

27
00:03:25,407 --> 00:03:32,207
"Let it be, o God, that none of his
descendants shall know happiness on earth."

28
00:03:45,808 --> 00:03:49,908
"Let the last of his line be such a villain...

29
00:03:50,209 --> 00:03:53,709
...as the world has not yet seen."

30
00:10:11,805 --> 00:10:13,905
"Let it be, o Lord,

31
00:10:14,806 --> 00:10:19,106
that after each of his evil deeds,
his grandfathers and great-grandfathers

32
00:10:19,307 --> 00:10:22,207
would find no peace in their graves,

33
00:10:22,208 --> 00:10:29,408
and, suffering torment unknown to the world
would rise from their eternal rest!"

34
00:12:20,309 --> 00:12:29,009
Lullay, lullay, lullay.

35
00:12:29,510 --> 00:12:37,810
Lullay, little son, lullay.

36
00:12:39,051 --> 00:12:48,511
Grow up lively and without worry;

37
00:12:48,912 --> 00:12:54,712
to Cossackdom bring glory...

38
00:15:20,513 --> 00:15:26,213
"And when the hour comes in which
that man's wickedness reaches its pinnacle,

39
00:15:26,604 --> 00:15:28,714
raise me, o Lord,

40
00:15:29,315 --> 00:15:34,815
from that chasm on my horse
unto the highest peak...

41
00:15:34,816 --> 00:15:37,816
...and let him come to me!"

42
00:16:42,407 --> 00:16:45,617
"And let him come to me!

43
00:16:45,618 --> 00:16:50,500
And I will hurl him from that peak
into the deepest chasm,

44
00:16:50,601 --> 00:16:57,601
and let all the corpses, his grandfathers and great-
grandfathers, be drawn from all ends of the earth

45
00:16:57,702 --> 00:17:01,802
to gnaw on him for the
torments he caused them,

46
00:17:02,303 --> 00:17:04,903
and forever may they gnaw on him.

47
00:17:04,904 --> 00:17:09,904
But the Judas Petro: let him
be unable to rise from the earth,

48
00:17:10,105 --> 00:17:12,805
let him strain to gnaw as well,

49
00:17:12,806 --> 00:17:14,906
but gnaw only upon himself.

50
00:17:15,456 --> 00:17:18,606
That torment will be the most terrible for him,

51
00:17:18,607 --> 00:17:22,000
for there is no greater torment for a man

52
00:17:22,401 --> 00:17:24,701
than to desire vengeance,

53
00:17:24,902 --> 00:17:27,702
and be denied vengeance.

54
00:18:51,308 --> 00:18:57,008
"Terrible is the punishment that you
have devised, o man," said God.

55
00:18:57,609 --> 00:19:00,609
"Let it all be as you have said,

56
00:19:01,310 --> 00:19:05,800
but you, too, shall sit forever
there on that horse of yours,

57
00:19:06,501 --> 00:19:10,201
and you shall not have the Kingdom of Heaven

58
00:19:10,202 --> 00:19:16,402
while you sit there on that horse of yours."
