Praestans dum quatitur Chelis:
Dum certas fidibus non triuialibus:
Dum fundis numeros nobilis (O) bonos:
Vincis maxime Gregori.
Primae vos superas viros,
Et Maya genitus, Linus, & Orpheus,
Alcaei taceat barbiton optimum:
Vincis barbiton Alcaei.
Dum pascis domini gregem,
(Est 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉 tua sic cignia 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉)
Dulcis, dulcior es mellibus Atticis:
Claris clarior omnibus.
Agros flumine dum rigas:
Dum cogis pecudes montibus Israel:
Et dum manna fluit faucibus inclytis:
Fauces mella stipant tuum.
Viuis maxime Gregori,
Laetis, at{que} bonis aedite saeculis.
Acris, melli fluus, doctiloquus, pius,
Vincis maxime Gregori.
