Deus est Deus pauperum.

So when he saw how Maltete came,

He said, "Beginneth now the game!"

And in the doorway did he stand

Trembling, with hand joined fast to hand.

Deus est Deus pauperum.

When Maltete did this carle behold

Somewhat he doubted of his gold,

But cried out, "Where is now thy store

Thou hast through books of wicked lore?"
