When the voice of the blood
of Ursula and her innocent company 
cried out before the throne of God,
the ancient prophecy came
by the root of Mamre
in a true revelation of the Trinity 
and said:
"That blood touches us,
now let us all rejoice." 
And afterwards came the congregation of the lamb,
by the ram hanging on thorns,
and said:
"Praise be in Jerusalem by the redness
of this blood." 
Then came the sacrifice of the calf
that the former law revealed,
a sacrifice of praise enwrapped
in variety,
which obscured the face of God to Moses,
revealing his back to him.
Such are the priests who by their tongues 
reveal God
and are unable see him completely,
and have said: "O most noble host,
that virgin who on earth was called Ursula
is given the name Columba on high,
because of the innocent company 
she gathered to herself." 
O Church, you are to be praised 
in this company:
a great company, signified by 
the unburnt bramble
that Moses had seen, 
and which God in its first root
had planted
in the man he had formed from mud, 
so that without mingling 
with man it might live, 
when with clearest voice they cried out 
in purest gold, topaz,
and sapphire enwrapped in gold.
Now let all the heavens rejoice, 
and with them let all the people
be adorned. Amen.
