Original text and translations

Latin text O mitissima Virgo Maria posce tuum filium ut nobis auxilium det et remedium contra demonum fallibiles astucias et horum nequicias. Virgo virginum, lumen luminum, reformatrix hominum, quæ portasti Dominum: per te, Maria, detur venia, angelo nunciante virgo es post et ante. Hæc dies.

English translation Oh, meekest virgin Mary, ask your son to give us help and remedy against the cunning stratagems of the demons and their wickedness. Virgin of all virgins, light of lights, reformer of mankind, who bore the Lord: thanks to you, Mary, was forgiveness granted, as the angel announced that you were to be virgin before, and after. Today is the day. Translation by Campelli
