Ecce novum gaudium

Ecce novum gaudium,
Ecce novum mirum,
Virgo parit filium,
Qvae non novit virum,
Qvae non novit virum,
Sed ut pyrus pyrum,
Gleba fert papyrum
Florens lilium.
  Ecce qvod natura
  Mutat sua jura,
  Virgo parit pura,
  Dei filium.

Mundum Deus flebilem
Cernens in ruina,
Rosam delectabilem
Produxit de spina,
Produxit de spina,
Natum de regina,
Qui et medicina,
Salus gentium.
  Ecce qvod natura
  Mutat sua jura,
  Virgo parit pura,
  Dei filium.

Nequivit divinitas
Plus humiliari,
Nec nostra carnalitas
Magis exaltari,
Magis exaltari,
Deo coaequari,
Coelo collocari,
Per conjugium.
  Ecce qvod natura
  Mutat sua jura,
  Virgo parit pura,
  Dei filium.
