Hymnus of Lofzang van de Kristelijke Ridder, [etc.] Produced by Frank van Drogen and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "De complete werken van Joost van Vondel. Hymnus of Lofzang van de Kristelijke Ridder" is a poetic work written during the early 17th century. It presents a hymn celebrating the valor of Christian knights, intertwining themes of spirituality and heroism in the context of religious warfare. Through its verses, it explores the struggle between faith and worldly temptations, drawing on biblical symbolism and historical references. At the start of this poetic journey, the author invokes the figure of a Christian knight, who wrestles with the duality of spiritual warfare and physical conflict. The knight is approached by Wisdom, who urges him to strip off his mortal armor for spiritual armaments embodying hope, faith, and righteousness. As he engages in dialogue with various personifications of human desires—such as worldly wealth and fleshly pleasures—he ultimately rejects their temptations, emphasizing his commitment to divine principles. This conflict sets the tone for the ensuing exploration of duty, temptation, and the struggle for the soul. (This is an automatically generated summary.) Reading ease score: 77.6 (7th grade).
