Text

Mundi pulchrum fundamentum
celi wltum firmamentum
sacrum trinitatis templum
vere castitatis exemplum.

O Maria celi via pandida
rosa florum candida
tu florens Aaron virgula
virginumque primula.

Stella maris appellaris fulgida
prole dya gravida
parens hunc sine macula
spargens hostis iacula.

Absterge mentis vicia
nunc tua per supplicia
sis nobisque propicia.

Merge cordis flagicia sevicia.

Vite confer spacia
perpetua solacia.

O Maria.
