R. Ecce, / quanti apud Dóminum mériti rútilans monachórum gemma exístat
Benedíctus: * Qui in uno Elisǽi actu, quem Sanctus Spíritus dúplici vestiérat
dono, † quadrúplici effúlsit miráculo.
V. In effúso scílicet venéno, in lagéna cum serpénte detécta, in obediénte
corvo, in pane mortífero longíus proiécto.
R. Qui in uno Elisǽi actu, quem Sanctus Spíritus dúplici vestiérat dono, † quadrúplici
effúlsit miráculo..

R. Behold how full of
the Lord's merits Benedict is revealed, the glowing jewel of monks: * Who,
like Eliseus was given a double portion of the Holy Spirit, and in a single
act, effected a fourfold miracle.
V. In the pouring out
of the poison, the detection of the snake in the flagon, in the obedience of
the raven, in the carrying far away of the deadly bread.
R. Who, like Eliseus
was given a double portion of the Holy Spirit, and in a single act, effected
a fourfold miracle.
