Abraham sanctis merito sociande patronis, quos tibi collegas dicere non trepidem: nam sic praecedunt, ut mox tamen ipse sequare; dat partem regni portio martyrii: natus ad Euphraten, pro Christo ergastula passus et quinquennali vincula laxa fame, elapsus regi truculento Susidis orae occiduum properas solus ad usque solum.
Abraham, worthy to be joined to the company of patron saints, whom I should not be afraid to call thy colleagues (for they take precedence only in the sense that thou followest close behind), thy portion of martyrdom givest thee a part in the Kingdom of Heaven. Born by the Euphrates, thou didst suffer the dungeon for Christs sake and the chains that grew loose about thee through five years of hunger. Escaping from the savage King of Susas realm, thou didst fare alone all the way to the western land.
