| Ὁ πρὶν καθαιρῶν ὑπεναντίους ξίφει | |
| και πάντας ἕλκων ὑπὸ δεσμὸν δουλίας | |
| εὐβουλίαις, γνώμαις τε καὶ στρατηγίαις | |
| σύνεδρος ὢν κρατοῦντι καὶ αὐτοκράτωρ | |
| νῦν ἦλθε σὺν λόγῳ κραταιῷ καὶ πόνῳ | |

Qui evertebat prius hostes gladio, Omnesque trahebat in servitutis iugum, Mente, consilio, et militaribus copiis, Regi regum factus administer, et Imperator: Nunc venit cum verbo forti et opere, Deo ipsum movente, cui vivit et scribit, Feriens, fugans phalanges novorum impiorum Male credentium Triadis lumen esse creaturam. |
