Latinam Hi sacerdotes Domini sacrati, consecratores Domini fideles atque pastores populi fuere impigro amore.
dona servantes, studere, lumbos fortiter cincti, manibus coruscas ferre lucernas.
ianuam pulsans Dominus veniret, obviaverunt properanti alacres pandere limen.
rex, tibi, regum, Deitas perennis, quicquid est rerum celebret per omne tempus et aevum. Amen. |
English These holy and sanctified priests of the Lord, were consecrators of the Lord's faithful ones, and they were good shepherds of the Lord's household with unwearied love.
to the members of the household, were zealous, with strongly girded loins and with hands shining to bear the trimm'd lamps.
when the Lord comes knocking upon the house-door, they have met swiftly and eagerly to lay open the threshold.
to you, king of kings, eternally divine, who is eminent and celebrated through all time and forever. Amen. |
