“Ye have committed wickedness
Against the Creator.”

Book of Taliesin (c. 1275?), Oh God, the God of Formation
Context: Ye have committed wickedness
Against the Creator.
A hundred thousand angels
Are to me witnesses,
Who came to conduct me
After my hanging,
When hanging cruelly,
Myself to deliver me
In heaven there was trembling
When I had been hung.
When I cried out Eli!
