To his appostillis ga tell the verite,
Surrexit sicut dixit, allalua ! ”
All honour we this Lord with joy and glory,
Thanking that mychty Campioun invincible,
That wan on tre trevmphe of he victory;
Syne brak the hellis dungeoun most terrible,
And chest the dragonis hidous and horrible
Per crucis validissima trophea,
And brocht the sawlis to joy euir permansible :
Surrexit sicut dixit, allalua !
Pleiss we this Lord that did in battell byd
For ws, quhilk had non vthir bute nor beild,
Quhill bludy wes his bak, body, and syd;

Or Phebus dirknes him Goddis Sone reveild
Sanguinea erant eius cannepea ;
He deit triumphand, he raiss and wan the feild :
Surrexit sicut dixit, allelua !
