*Panis angelicus fit panis hominum;
Dat panis cœlicus figuris terminum:
O res mirabilis! Manducat Dominum
Pauper, pauper, servus et humilis.

The bread of angels becomes bread for humankind;
This heavenly bread gives an end to all forms.
Oh, wonderful fact! The Lord feeds the poor,
The servant, the lowly.
