Original text and translations

Latin text Mulier cur plorans hic? Ante monumentum. Tulerunt Dominum meum et nescio ubi posuerunt eum. Si tu sustulisti eum, dicite mihi. Ego sum, non me cognoscis, ò Maria? Nolime tangere. Vade, anuntiate ejus resurrexit sicut dixit. O, o magister bone, bone magister. Da mihi ut amlectam pedes tuos, discipuli dolentes quærebant te. (free after John 20:15-18)

English translation Woman, why weepest thou? into the sepulchre. they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him. if thou have borne him hence, tell me. It’s me, and you did not recognise me, o Maria. Touch me not. Go, announce that he has risen as he said. Oh, oh good teacher, good teacher. Give me to love your feet the disciples sought thee in sorrow.
