Sibylla Delphica
Language: Latin 
Our translations:  ENG FIN FRE
Nun tarde veniet, tacita sed mente tenendum
Hoc opus, hoc memori semper, qui corde reponet,
Huius pertendant cor gaudia magna Prophetae
Eximii, qui virginea conceptus ab alvo
Prodibit, sine contactu maris omnia vincit
Hoc naturae opera, at fecit, qui cuncta gubernat.
