I was going for "masturbediwn fental" (f), but "manystuprediwn fental"
would also fit, with my vote going to the second one. The words seem to

Lo! thy dread empire, Chaos! is restored;
Light dies before thy uncreating word:
Thy hand, great Anarch! lets the curtain fall;
And Universal Darkness buries All.
