~
Deus misertus hominis,
Lavit reatum criminis
Eve per partum virginis;
O quam dulce remedium,
Ut vitium
Purgetur per contrarium;
Fit electis compendium,
Ne tedium
Sit currenti per stadium,
Si differatur bravium.
Mundus vergens in defectum,
Casum probans per effectum
Se fallacem exuit,
Nam remota fraudis arce
Nos delere vi vel arte,
Quod iam patet, astruit,
Et dum his se applicat,
Quod explicit, explicat.
