1. There is no rose of such virtue,
As is the rose that bare Jesu;
Alleluia.
2. For in this rose contained
Was Heaven and Earth in little space;
Res Miranda.
3. By that rose we may well see
There be one God in persons three;
Pares Forma.
4. Then leave we all this worldly mirth
And follow we this joyous birth;
Transeamus.
