Latin text Nuntius celso veniens Olympo Te Patri magnum fore nasciturum, Nomen et vitae seriem gerendae Ordine promit.   Gloria Patri, genitaeque Proli, et tibi compar utriusque semper, Spiritus alme, Deus unus omnium, tempore saeculi. Amen.

English translation Lo ! a swift herald, from the skies descending, Bears to thy father promise of thy greatness ; How he shall name thee, what thy future story, Duly revealing.   Glory be to the Father, and to his begotten Son, And to thee, always equal to both, gracious Spirit, one God of all, for ever. Amen.
