Hymnus
Verbum supérnum pródiens, a Patre lumen éxiens, qui natus orbi súbvenis cursu declívi témporis:
Illúmina nunc péctora tuóque amóre cóncrema; audíta per præcóni sint pulsa tandem lúbrica.
Iudéxque cum post áderis rimári facta péctoris, reddens vicem pro ábditis iustísque regnum pro bonis,
Non demum artémur malis pro qualitáte críminis, sed cum beátis cómpotes simus perénnes cǽlites.
Sit, Christe, rex piíssime, tibi Patríque glória cum Spíritu Paráclito, in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.
