Ego quos amo, arguo, et castigo. Æmulare ergo, et pœnitentiam age.

Olim die inventionis Sanctae Crucis
O Magnum pietatis opus! Mors mortua tunc est, in ligno quando mortua Vita fuit, Alleluia.
Salva nos, Christe Salvator, per virtutem Crucis : qui salvasti Petrum in mari, miserere nobis, alleluia.
Ecce Crucem Domini, fugite, partes adversae, vicit leo de tribu Juda, radix David, alleluia.
O great work of kindness! Death then died, when Life died on the tree. Alleluia! Save us, O Christ the Saviour, by the power of the Cross : thou who saved Peter in the sea, have mercy on us. Alleluia. Behold the Cross of the Lord; flee, ye enemy armies: the lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, has conquered. Alleluia!
