R. Dulce lignum, / dulces clavos, dulce pondus sustínuit: * Quæ sola digna fuit portáre prétium huius sǽculi.
V. Hoc signum Crucis erit in cælo cum Dóminus ad iudicándum vénerit.
R. Quæ sola digna fuit portáre prétium huius sǽculi.
R. Sweetest wood and sweetest iron, Sweetest weight is hung on thee * Thou alone wast counted worthy this world's ransom to uphold.
V. The sign of the Cross shall be in heaven when the Lord cometh to judgment.
R. Thou alone wast counted worthy this world's ransom to uphold.
