Glória Patri per imménsa sǽcula, Sit tibi Nate decus et impérium, Honor, potéstas, Sanctóque Spirítui: Sit Trinitáti salus indivídua, Per infiníta sæculórum sǽcula. Amen. en: | In wondrous mode set free, lo, at the Lord's command The galling iron chain doth fall from Peter's hand, From Peter, shepherd blest, who doth with gentle sway, His faithful children lead in virtue's fragrant way, And e'er with watchful love the tempter drive away. Now to the Father be eternal glory done; Our songs we raise to thee, O everlasting Son; O Spirit from on high, thy throne we bow before; To thee be honour, praise, and glory evermore: The Holy Trinity we worship and adore. Amen. status: la: verified en: verified
