Original text and translations
Latin text
Agatha laetissime et glorianter ibat ad carcerem,
et quasi ad epulas invitata
agonem suum Domino praecibus commendabat.
English translation
Translation by Paul Pascal
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.
