Sebestyén Péter: Excommunication (Excommunicatio in English)

Itt volék sirolm tudotlan.
Odatúl tán semmi sem íly konok.
A Könyvtár ég; olvasatlan.
Most azonnal: mindent visszavonok.                           

Here, back then, I knew not the lament.
Yon perhaps there's nothing this perverse.
The Library, it burns: unread content.
Forthwith I shall recant each line and verse.
