Black Lantern Corps - Oath

Oath

As with the other Lantern Corps, Black Hand devised an oath for the Black Lanterns:

The Blackest Night falls from the skies,
The darkness grows as all light dies,
We crave your hearts and your demise,
By my black hand, the dead shall rise!

Famous quotes containing the word oath:

    It is not the oath that makes us believe the man, but the man the oath.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    Whoever has had the experience of the moral sentiment cannot choose but believe in unlimited power. Each pulse from that heart is an oath from the Most High. I know not what the word sublime means, if it be not the intimations, in this infant, of a terrific force.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The oath of a lover is no stronger than the word of a
    tapster; they are both the confirmer of false reckonings.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
