R. Sanctus Benedíctus, / post tríduum
in cella consístens, † élevans ad caelum óculos, vidit soróris suae ánimam de
córpore egréssam, * In colúmbae spécie caeli secréta penetráre.
V. Qui tantae eius glóriae congáudens,
omnipoténti Deo in hymnis et láudibus grátias réddidit, † eiúsque óbitum frátibus
denuntiávit.
R. In colúmbae
spécie caeli secréta penetráre.

R. Saint Benedict, three days after,
standing in his cell, and lifting up his eyes to heaven, beheld the soul of
his sister (which was departed from her body), * In the likeness of a dove to
ascend into heaven.
V. Who rejoicing much to see her
great glory, with hymns and lauds gave thanks to almighty God, and did impart
the news of this her death to his monks.
R. In the likeness of a dove to
ascend into heaven.
