Vidi speciósam sicut columbam - Assumption No 1

R. Vidi / speciósam sicut colúmbam, ascendéntem désuper rivos aquárum, † cuius inæstimábilis odor erat nimis in vestiméntis eius; * Et sicut dies verni circúmdabant eam flores rosárum et lília convállium.
V. Quæ est ista quæ ascéndit per desértum † sicut vírgula fumi ex aromátibus myrrhæ et thuris?
R. Et sicut dies verni circúmdabant eam flores rosárum et lília convállium.
R. I saw her, when, fair like a dove, she winged her flight above the rivers of waters. The priceless savour of her perfumes hung heavy in her garments. * And about her it was as the flower of roses in the spring of the year, and lilies of the valleys.
V. Who is this that cometh out of the wilderness like a pillar of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and frankincense?
R. And about her it was as the flower of roses in the spring of the year, and lilies of the valleys.
