<V.> Olim te virentibus
herbulis ornata
nunc gemmis nitentibus
pango trabeatam.

V. Color smaragdineus
virens castitas
rubor carbunculeus
fulgens caritate.

<R°> Sardius topasius
onix eduullus
achates ligurius
iaspis et berillus.

V. O Maria humilis
mater Ihesu Christi
purpure consimilis
decor ametisti.

V. Ornat se venustius
et fugat venena
nil plus deum celsius
a gracia plena.

R° En mater et filia
pro mundi salute
nato nos concilia
zaphiri virtute.
