Original text and translations
Latin text
Veni sponsa Christi,
accipe coronam
quam tibi Dominus praeparavit in aeternum.
English translation
Come, bride of Christ,
and accept the crown
that the Lord has prepared for you for ever.
Comment: There could hardly be a clearer example of the use of a Song of Songs text to address the Virgin Mary, in view of the cantus firmus, which makes the connection by calling Mary Christ's bride. - Mick Swithinbank
