Sibylla Agrippa

Summus erit sub carne satus clarissimus atque Virginis
Et vere complevit1 viscera sanctum
Verbum consilio sine noxa spiritus almi,
Despectus multis tamen ille salutis amore
Arguet et nostra commissa piacula culpa,
Cuius honos constans et gloria certa manebit.

Suurin ja rakkain on lihaksitullut Poika

Suurin ja rakkain on lihaksitullut Poika,
Neitsyen kohdun täytti
Pyhän sanan mukaan, sitä vahingoittamatta Pyhä Henki,
Monet halveksivat häntä, mutta rakkaudesta hän
lunastaa suuret syntivelkamme.
Hänen maineensa on suuri ja hänen kunniansa iankaikkinen.
