"O Sanctissima, O Piissima
Dulcis Virgo Maria
Mater amata, Intemerata
Ora, Ora Pro Nobis

Tota pulchra es, O Maria
Et macula non est in te
Mater amata intemerata
Ora, ora pro nobis

Sicut lilium inter spinas
Sic Maria inter filias
Mater amata intemerata
Ora ora pro nobis

In miseria, in angustia
Ora Virgo pro nobis
Pro nobis ora in mortis hora
Ora, ora pro nobis

Tu solatium et refugium
Virgo Mater Maria
Quidquid optamus per te speramus
Ora, ora pro nobis"

[3] Comment under [1] by Jacob McCrumb:

"O sanctissima,  O piissima, // O most holy, O most tender,
dulcis virgo Maria // sweet virgin Mary
Ora, ora, ora, pro nobis // pray, pray, pray, for us
Virgo respice, Mater adspice // O virgin care for, O mother behold
audi nos, O Maria // hear us, O Mary
Jubilate Cherubim // Cherubim sing out joyfully
Exsultate Seraphim // Seraphim exalt (praise)
Consonante perpitim // singing together perpitim (not sure)
Salve, salve Regina // Hail, hail O Queen
O sanctissima, O piissima, (See first stanza)
dulcis virgo Maria
Ora, ora, ora pro nobis
Sancta Maria Mater Dei (some combination of these words are repeated, they mean Holy Mary Mother of God)
Jubilate Cherubim (See above)
Exsultate Seraphim
Consonante perpitim
Salve, salve Regina
Ora // Pray"
