Latin text

Iste confessor Domini sacratus
Festa plebs cujus celebrat per orbens
Hodie lectus meruit secreta
Scandere caeli.

Ad sacrum cujus tumulum frequenter
Membra languentum modo sanitati
Quolibet morbo fuerint gravata
Restituuntur.

Sit laus illi decus atque virtus
Qui supra caeli residens cacumen
Totius mundi machinam gubernat
Trinus et unus. Amen.
