Oh halál! mely keserves a te emlékezeted azon embernek,

Latin.png Latin text

O mors quam amara est memoria tua
homini pacem habenti in substantiis suis
viro quieto, et cujus vitae directae sunt in omnibus
et adhuc valenti accipere cibum.

O mors bonum est judicium tuum
homini indigenti et qui minoratur viribus,
defecta aetate, et cui de omnibus cura est
et incredibili qui perdit sapientiam.

Oh halál! mely keserves a te emlékezeted azon embernek,
ki békeségben él javaival,
a nyugalomban élő férfiúnak, kinek útai mindenben szerencsések,
és a ki jóízűen ehetik.

Oh halál! jó a te itéleted a szűkölködő embernek,
és annak, ki megfogyatkozott erejében,
elgyengűlt öregségében, és a kinek mindenre nézve gondja van,
és a bizalmatlannak, ki elveszti a bölcsességet.

O death, how bitter is the remembrance of thee
to a man that liveth at rest in his possessions:
unto the man that hath nothing to vex him, and that hath prosperity in all things,
yea unto him that is yet able to receive meat!

O death, acceptable is thy sentence unto the needy,
and unto him whose strength faileth,
that is now in the last age, and is vexed with all things,
and to him that despaireth and hath lost patience!
