Original text and translations

Latin text

Resurrectio Christi victoria nostra.
Non ullo armorum strepitu sed citra humanum presidium parta est.
Tuus enim maxime Deus unice missus filius
carnis infirmitate principis huius mundi potentiam testimonio prophetarum devicit.
Adveniens itaque verus Melchisedech,
Christus, in sanctus sanctorum ingressus est,
non veteris Mosaice legis victimis sed proprio sanguine
nos captivos diabolica tyrannide patri redemit.
Exultant Christicole pudefacta Judea crucis erecto tropheo.
Uno ore canamus, alleluya.
