¶Lyrics / Text

Nympha, refer quae sit vox hic clamantis; quis locus ille virum quo jam quaeremus? Hoc ne loco vates consuevit vivere? Quae bona thesauro deprompsit divite! Hic quis erat cupiens fieri sanctissimus, cuius eget minime, tantimens pauperis tegmine; nonne Dei cultum redolebat, nunc divos etiam coluit peramanter. Dic, ubi te inveniam nunc, Christi prodrome; itur ea ne via qua forte redibitur? Quid suades faciam? Tu, dum clamabis ad coelos, nobis monstrasti jamne viam; ergo iter ingrediar, pandisti quod subito.
