R. Gloriósum diem / sacra venerátur
Ecclésia, dum triumphále reserátur lignum: * In quo Redémptor noster, mortis
víncula rumpens, † cállidum áspidem superávit.
V. In ligno péndens nostræ salútis
sémitam Verbum Patris invénit.
R. In quo Redémptor noster, mortis
víncula rumpens, † cállidum áspidem superávit.

R. Lo the Church, with solemn gladness, hails the day
for ever glorious, when the opening earth revealeth that dread tree of mystic
triumph. * On whose boughs her dying Saviour shattered death and crushed the
serpent.
V. He the Word of God eternal, on those stately
branches hanging, hath for us a new way opened.
R. On whose boughs her dying Saviour shattered death
and crushed the serpent.
