Quotation
Quo interim 'dormiente' apparent sponsae sponsi sodales angeli et his eam sermonibus consolantur: nos tibi 'aurea' ornamenta 'facere' non possumus, non sumus tam divites, ut sponsus tuus, qui aureum tibi 'monile' largitur; nos 'similitudines auri faciemus', non habemus aurum.Et hoc quoque laetandum est, si 'similitudines auri', si 'stigmata faciamus argenti'. "Similitudines auri faciemus tibi cum stigmatibus argenti", verum non omni tempore, sed 'donec' sponsus tuus consurgat a 'cubitu'.
