Original text and translations

Latin text Quis mihi det lacrimis gemitus suspiria fletus  ut valeam mortem plangere Christe tuam? Heu modo quam saevis livent tua viscera plagis  o sacrum horrendo vulnere pectus hiat.

English translation Who will give me groans, sighs and tears to weep so that I may lament your death, Christ? It is pitiful to see how you writhe with gashes in your entrails and what a horrible wound gapes in your sacred breast.
