Sibylla Phrygia
Language: Latin
Ipsa Deum vidi summum punire volentem Mundi homines stupidos et pectora caeca rebellis, Et quia sic nostram complerent crimina pellem. Virginis in corpus voluit demittere coelo Ipse Deus prolem, quam nuntiat angelus almae Matri Quo miseros contracto sorte lavaret.
Note: the last two words may be "sorde levaret"
