There is no rose of such virtue
As is the rose that bare Jesu:
Alleluia.
For in this rose contained was
Heaven and earth in little space:
Res miranda.
By that rose we may well see
That he is God in persons three:
Pari forma.
Leave we all this worldly mirth,
And follow we this joyful birth:
Transeamus.
(Click here to hear King's College Choir, Cambridge,
sing this wonderful carol.)
