Original text and translations
Both the English and Latin texts are in the piece.
Thou art Peter, and upon this rocke I wil buylde my Church: and the gates of hel shal not overcome it. And I wil give unto thee the keyes of the kingdome of heaven.
Tu es Petrus, et super hanc petram ædificabo ecclesiam meam, et portæ inferi non prævalebunt adversus eam. Et tibi dabo claves regni cælorum.
