Nile Whisper in the ear of the Dead Lyrics:
Whisper in the Ear of the UnBlessed Dead And My
Words of Power are Heard in the Underworld The
Dead They are Compelled to Obey Me Even Unto the
Worlds Below Yea I Whisper in the Ear of the
UnBlessed Dead An they Heed my Necromantic Demands
For I have Bound Them Inexorably Cursed in this
Life and the Next I Whisper in the Ear of the
UnBlessed Dead And They Tell me Things No Living
Man Knoweth For I Have Taken Possession of their
Shadows And They re Mine To Command in the
Netherworld

I Dream of the Dead And Their Shades Showeth Me
Visions Which No Living Man Can Know I Whisper in
the Ear of the Dead And Mine is the UnWritten
Knowledge That Lieth Under The Black Earth

To Speak The Name of The Dead Is To Cause Them to
Live Again

Egypt. His reign was during the 4th century B.C.
and he was historically rumored to be a great
sorcerer and necromancer. It is believed that
Nectanabus ruled Egypt, overcame his enemies and
even kept his political rivals in check by means
of the exercise of magickal and necromantic arts.
He is credited with possessing the power to
restore amputated limbs and the capacity to
replace the heads of the slain and decapitated
without injury. Nectanabus was said to have been
deeply learned in the wisdom of the oldest of the
ancient Egyptians. He "knew what was in the stars
of the Heavens." He was skilled in reading the
stars, foretelling the future of the unborn, and a
master of communion with the dead. He is also
called "The Lord of the Earth" and is said to have
"secretly ruled all earthly kings by magickal
means." It is said that he whispered whis commands
in the ears of the dead, so that they should carry
out his designs in the spirit world. According to
early historians, Nectanabus exercised control of
many of his enemies by enslaving the souls of the
newly dead, commanding them to learn the secrets
of the enemies via the spirits of the underworld,
and using this knowledge against his enemies.
Nectanabus continued is necromanticambitions, even
using means of sorcery to achieve military ends
until the day the gods decreed his rule should end
and Nectanabus was forced to flee to Macedonia.]
