a knight's liebesgesang I 「ad hoc signo vinces」

"to this sign I submit, against this sign I shall conquer!"
the Voice sung, echoing in the void's chamber 
or perhaps, nay, friend. I may add a little of my own;
"I am quite all-round protected in my enamorment. 
though I left my mailed-visor at the camp,
if thou shouldst slap hard the hardened shell of steel it is 
to own neither chink nor seam for the infidel to invade
and pillage of my body's carnal virtue! Make bless!
such is the happiness of healthy and sanguine, hot-tempered virtue,
that I have forgotten all the receptive manners, alack I did only receive my
bad education from a gold-lusty governess, intemperate Woman
that what is left behind for me over the years are not holes in the 
shinily armored defending argument
and only have I the freshly polished, twice forged, straight were-slaying spear.
for this sign I have no graal
against it, nor will I run away and expand my dimensions in fear. "
a simple Pole with no hollow retreat on Earth, Alas 
ad hoc, ergo vinci.*
*If science could but find a way.
"ad hoc, ergo propter hoc sum,"
