  There is no rose of such virtue
  As is the rose that bare Jesu;
  Alleluia.
  
  For in this rose contained was
  Heaven and earth in little space;
  Res miranda.
  
  By that rose we may well see
  That he is God in persons three,
  Pari forma.
  
  The angels sungen the shepherds to:
  Gloria in excelsis deo:
  Gaudeamus.
  
  Leave we all this worldly mirth,
  And follow we this joyful birth;
  Transeamus.
  
  Alleluia, res miranda,
  Pares forma, gaudeamus,
  Transeamus.  less
