estne Deus, cuius cunas veneratus Eous lancibus auratis regalia fercula supplex virginis ad gremium pannis puerilibus offert? quis tam pinnatus rapidoque simillimus austro nuntius Aurorae populos atque ultima Bactra attigit, inluxisse diem lactantibus horis, qua tener innupto penderet ab ubere Christus? vidimus hunc aiunt puerum per sidera ferri, et super antiquos signorum ardescere tractus.
Is not He God, to whose cradle the East does reverence, offering on bended knee before the Virgins lap kingly gifts on gilded platters for the child in swaddling-clothes? What winged messenger, swift as the rushing wind, came to the peoples of the morning in farthest Bactra to tell them a day had dawned whose hours were full of richness, the day on which the babe Christ hung on a breast unwedded? We have seen, they said, this child passing over the sky and outshining the trains of the ancient stars.
