Latin text

Agatha laetissime et glorianter ibat ad carcerem,

et quasi ad epulas invitata

agonem suum Domino praecibus commendabat.

English translation Translation supplied by Paul Pascal, Professor Emeritus of Classics, University of Washington

Agatha most joyfully and gloriously went to a dungeon,

and, as if she were invited to a sumptuous feast,

she commended her suffering to the Lord with prayers.
