Original text and translations

Latin text

O adorandum sacramentum, praecipuis magnificandum laudibus
ac sinceris retinendum mentibus,
O memoriale nobilissimum intimis commendandum praeconiis,
commendandum firmiter animo alligandum diligenterque
in cordis utero reservandum meditatione
ac sedula celebratione recensendum.

Quod transiturus de hoc mundo
ad patrem Jesus Christus salvator noster
cum passionis tempus instaret hora in suae mortis memoriam
instituit summum ac magnificum sui corporis sacramentum corpus in cibum,
et sanguinem in poculum tribuendo.
