Esquivel's text changes second person pronouns to third person, as follows:

In paradisum deducant eum angeli, in eius adventu suscipiant eum martyres, et perducant eum in civitatem sanctam Jerusalem. Chorus angelorum eum suscipiat, et cum Lazaro quondam paupere aeternam habeat requiem.

May angels lead him into paradise, etc.
