R. O beátum virum, / in cuius tránsitu
Sanctórum canit númerus, † Angelórum exsúltat chorus, * Omniúmque cæléstium
Virtútum occúrrit psalléntium exércitus!
V. Ecclésia virtúte roborátur,
sacerdótes Dei revelatióne glorificántur, † quem Michaël assúmpsit cum Angelis.
R. Omniúmque cæléstium Virtútum occúrrit
psalléntium exércitus!

R. Blessed indeed was this man, at the
time of whose passing the Saints sang in company, a band of Angels shouted
aloud for joy * And an army of all the Powers of heaven came out to meet him,
singing praises.
V. His strength is a stay to the
Church, his manifestation a glory to the Priests of God; Michael and his
Angels took him away.
R. And an army of all the Powers of
heaven came out to meet him, singing praises.
