ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.
ℹ️ The Chinese and English alongside are this site's own translation, made directly from the original text on this page (not the CUV or the WEB, which follow the Masoretic Text and a different textual tradition).
A place is chosen by Christ, where he may carry proven hearts to heaven by blood, and cleanse them by water. Here two men, slain for the name of the Lord, bore a crimson martyrdom by a beautiful death. Here too indulgence flows from a liquid fountain, and washes away old stains with a new stream. Whoever desires to ascend the eternal kingdom of heaven, let him come hither thirsting—behold, the way is prepared. Before, the crowned witnesses climbed the steep courts; now the washed souls seek the heights. The Spirit, wont to descend in an eternal gliding, just as it had given the palm, so it grants pardon. The earth drinks the sacred dews, whether from fount or from blood, and overflows, perpetually wet with its own God. He himself is the Lord of the place, from whose wound on both sides blood flowed forth here and water there.
