First Line: Holy waters hither bring
Last Line: Thou the queen of peace and quorum.


Holy waters hither bring
For the sacred sprinkling:
Baptize me and thee, and so
Let us to the Altar go.
And (ere we our rites commence)
Wash our hands in innocence.
Then I'le be the Rex Sacrorum,
Thou the queen of Peace and quorum.
