Full text:
Nox et tenebrae et nubila confusa mundi et turbida lux intrat albescit polus Christus venit discedite | Caligo terrae scinditur percussa solis spiculo rebusque jam color redit vultu nitentis sideris | Te Christe solum novimus te mente pura et simplici rogare curvato genu flendo et canendo discimus | Intende nostris sensibus vitamque totam dispice sunt multa fucis illita quae luce purgentur tua | Sit Christe rex piissime tibi patrique gloria cum spiritu paraclito in sempiterna saecula
