Original text and translations

Latin text

Valde honorandus est beatus Joannes qui supra pectus Domini
in cena recubuit cui Christus in cruce matrem virginem virgini commendavit.
Alleluia.

Cibavit illum Dominus pane vitae et intellectus
et aqua sapientiae salutaris potavit eum
cui Christus in cruce matrem virginem virgini commendavit.
Alleluia.
