Our foolish enemy hath said in his heart: I will follow after and take him, and my hand shall slay him. Arise, O Lady, and prevent him, and supplant him: destroy all his machinations. Thy beauty astonishes the sun and the moon; the angelic powers serve and obey thee. By thy gentle touch the sick are healed: by thy rose-sweet fragrance the dead revive. Virgin Mother of God, He whom the whole world cannot contain was enclosed within thee, being made Man. Glory be to the Father, etc.
