Original text and translations

Latin text

O praeciosum, et admirandum convivium;
salutiferum, et omni suavitate repletum!
Quid enim hoc convivio praeciosius esse potest?
in quo, non carnes Vitulorum, et Hircorum,
ut olim in lege, sed nobis Christus sumendus proponitur, verus Deus.
Memoria memor ero, et tabescet in me anima mea.
