Omnis pulchritudo Domini exaltata est super sidera: species ejus in nubibus coeli, et nomen ejus in aeternum permanet, alleluia.
Non turbetur cor vestrum: ego vado ad Patrem; et dum assumptus fuero a vobis, mittam vobis, alleluia, Spiritum veritatis, et gaudebit cor vestrum, alleluia.
Ascendens Christus in altum, captivam duxit captivitatem, dedit dona hominibus. Ascendit Deus in jubilatione, et Dominus in voce tubae, alleluia.
Tenor: Elevatis manibus ferebatur in coelum, et benedixit eis, alleluia.
