“Hear ye all, lovers of God, the holy merits
                                                          Of the man blessed in Christ, Patrick the bishop…
                                                          He is the King’s herald, inviting the faithful to the wedding feast.
                                                          He wears a wedding garment, rich and fine,
                                                          He drinks supernal wine from celestial cups,
                                                          And gives to God’s people the spiritual cup to imbibe.”
