Poem of the Day: N.VAnteOff.Trop

  1. Laudibus laternis pueros ueneremur et hymnis
  2. quos hodie Christus patri sacrauerat infans.
  3. O quam felix est Iudae Bethlemitica tellus,
  4. agmina paruorum quae missit ad astra polorum.
  5. Eia, nunc omnes pueri iubilate per orbem
  6. laudantes Dominum pia per praeconia laudum.
