Original text and translations

Latin text Karitas habundat in omnia, de imis excellentissima super sidera atque amantissima in omnia, quia summo regi osculum pacis dedit.

English translation Divine Love overflows into everything raised high – highest – from the very depths to surpass constellations, and tender – most tender – toward all creation, such that it bestows the kiss of peace on the highest king. Translation by Hugh McElroy
