Hostis Herodes impie,
Christum venire quid times?
Non eripit mortalia
qui regna dat caelestia.

Lavacra puri gurgitis
caelestis Agnus attigit:
peccata, quae non detulit
nos abluendo sustulit.

Jesu, tibi sit gloria
qui apparuisti gentibus
cum Patre, et almo Spiritu
in sempiterna saecula.


Ibant Magi quam viderant
stellam sequentes praeviam:
Lumen requirunt lumine:
Deum fatentur munere.
Novum genus potentiae:
Aquae rubescunt hydriae,
vinumque jussa fundere,
mutavit unda originem.
