Latinam Igne divini radians amoris corporis sexum superavit Agnes, et super carnem potuere carnis claustra pudicae. Spiritum celsae capiunt cohortes candidum, caeli super astra tollunt; iungitur Sponsi thalamis pudica sponsa beatis. Virgo, nunc nostrae miserere sortis et, tuum quisquis celebrat tropaeum, impetret sibi veniam reatus atque salutem. Redde pacatum populo precanti principem caeli dominumque terrae donet ut pacem pius et quietae tempora vitae. Laudibus mitem celebremus Agnum, casta quem sponsum sibi legit Agnes, astra qui caeli moderatur atque cuncta gubernat. Amen.

English Radiating with the fire of divine love Agnes rises above the sex of her body, and, above mere flesh, were able to be the cloisters of pure flesh. Her spirit, sublime cohorts take hold of, white it is; above heaven's stars, they lift it; joined to the blessed chambers of the Bridegroom, the pure bride. O virgin, now have mercy on our lot and, may whoever celebrates thy victory, obtain for themself pardon of guilt and also salvation. Render calm to the people imploring the Prince of heaven and Lord of earth that the Holy One may grant peace and the times of a calm life. With praises let us celebrate the meek Agnus, whom the chaste Agnes chose and spoused to herself, who moderates the stars of heaven and governs all things. Amen.
