Latinam Qua Christus hora sitiit crucem vel in qua subiit, quos praestat in hac psallere ditet siti iustitiae. Simul sit in his esuries, quam ipse de se satiet, crimen sit ut fastidium virtusque desiderium. Charisma Sancti Spiritus, sic influat psallentibus, ut carnis aestus frigeat et mentis algor ferveat. Christum rogamus et Patrem, Christi Patrisque Spiritum; unum potens per omnia, fove precantes, Trinitas. Amen.

English The hour in which Christ became thirsty or also in which, unto the cross, He climbed, supplies those in this hour to sing psalms, enriches with thirst for justice. At the same time, may it be with these, hunger, which may He from Himself satisfy, may crime be unto loathing and virtue, desire. The Gift of the Holy Spirit thus let it flow into those singing the psalms, that the flesh's heat may become frigid and the mind's coldness may become fervent. To Christ we pray and to the Father, and Christ's and the Father's Spirit; One, Powerful through all things, support those entreating, O Trinity! Amen.
