As with a balance thou didst weigh

The Christ that bore us out of Hell.

6. Fundis aroma cortice,

Vincis sapore nectare,

Iocunda fructu fertili

Plaudis triumpho nobili.

6. Thy wood is all a sweet perfume,

Thou art like nectar very sweet;

Rejoicing in thy fruit thou mak’st

A perfect triumph more complete.
