One in herself, not rent by schism, but sound,

Entire, one solid shining diamond;

Not sparkles shattered into sects like you:

One is the church, and must be to be true;

}

One central principle of unity; }

As undivided, so from errors free; }

As one in faith, so one in sanctity. }

Thus she, and none but she, the insulting rage

Of heretics opposed from age to age;
