Ave Maria, gratia plena;
Dominus tecum: benedicta tu in mulieribus,
et benedictus fructus ventris tui, Jesus.
Sancta Maria, mater Dei, Ora pro nobis peccatoribus,
nunc et in hora mortis nostræ.
Amen.

Ave verum corpus, natum
Ex Maria Virgine,1
Vere passum, immolatum
In cruce pro homine.
Cujus latus perforatum,
Vero fluxit sanguine;
Esto nobis prægustatum,
Mortis in examine.
O clemens, O dulcis Jesu, Fili Mariæ.2
1 Or De Maria Virgine

Jesu, Word of God Incarnate,
Of the Virgin Mary born,
On the Cross Thy sacred body
For us men with nails was torn.
Cleanse us, by the blood and water
Streaming from Thy pierced Side;
Feed us with Thy Body broken,
Now, and in death’s agony.
O Jesu, O Jesu hear us, Son of Mary
