Te, beáta sponsa Christi, turba tollit vírginum cælitúmque cœtus omnis láudibus, Scholástica; nostra votis te salútant mixta nunc præcónia.
Quæ cadúca mundus offert docta quondam spérnere, dogma fratris insécuta eius atque régulæ, ex odóre gratiárum astra nosti quǽrere.

Nunc, benígna, pelle nubes córdibus fidélium, ut seréna fronte splendens Sol perénnis lúminis, sempitérnæ claritátis nos inúndet gáudiis.
Glóriam Patri canámus unicóque Fílio, par tribútum proferámus ínclito Paráclito, nútibus quorum creántur et regúntur sǽcula.
