Latinam Dicamus laudes Domino fervente prompti spiritu; hora voluta sexies nos ad orandum provocat. In hac enim fidelibus verae salutis gloria, beati Agni hostia, crucis virtute redditur. Cuius luce clarissima tenebricat meridies; sumamus toto pectore tanti splendoris gratiam. Deo Patri sit gloria eiusque soli Filio cum Spiritu Paraclito, in sempiterna saecula. Amen.

English Let us our praises to God now speak In a spirit ready, and devoutly; The hour on its sixth arrival Calls us now to prayer. For to the faithful in this way The glory of true health— The sacrifice of the blessed Lamb— By virtue of the cross is offered. In this brightest of light Even the mid-day sun seems dark; Let us soak in with all our heart The grace of such luster. To God the Father be the glory And to his only Son, With the Spirit Paraclete While all ages run. Amen.
