Ode in Honour of St. Thomas Aquinas

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 January 2025

Extract

Ordinis nostri decus est eritque,

Praeferens sanctam sine fraude vitam,

Ceteri lumen venientis aevi Magnus Aquinas.

Ille tentatus neque cessit unquam Daemoni, fortis superare falsum Gaudium, quem non iuvenilis ardor Impulit ullus;

Nec tulit famam vitiosae mentis,

Dum negat Verum, nec honore inani Fructus est Docti et Sapientis ultro Nomen adeptus.

Moribus castis venerandus idem Quos putat dignos ope non recusat,

Angelos inter positus, tueri,

Rite vocatus.

Qui Dei cunctis bene iura monstrans, Mysticae Vitis celebrare cultum Callidus, virtute sua replebit Pectora nobis.

S.M.A.
