Venite, venite Venite bibite vinum quod miscuit vobis, ineffabilem sapientiam. Comedite, bibite, amici divinum mel et lac. Quia meliora sunt ubera Dei vino consolationis mundi. Venite, sitientes ad aquas Domini; properate, emite sine argento mel et lac. Come, come Come, you who thirst for the waters of the Lord; make haste to buy milk and honey without silver. Come, come Come, drink the wine that He has mixed for you, of His ineffable wisdom. Friends, eat, drink the divine milk and honey. For God's breasts overflow with the wine that consoles the world. Come, you who thirst for the waters of the Lord; make haste to buy milk and honey without silver.
