Circa mea pectora
Language: Latin
Circa mea pectora multa sunt suspiria de tua pulchritudine, que me ledunt misere. Ah ! Mandaliet, mandaliet, min geselle chumet niet. Tui lucent oculi sicut solis radii, sicut splendor fulguris lucem donat tenebris.Ah ! Mandaliet, mandaliet, min geselle chumet niet. Vellet deus, vellent dii, quod mente proposui, ut eius virginea reserassem vincula.Ah ! Mandaliet, mandaliet, min geselle chumet niet.
