Hymn, In tenebrarum medio.

A hymn asking that the author may meditate on divine light, that his works may be done in the light, that neither demonic influence nor human onslaught nor sudden death may disturb his peace. The author glorifies God, for sending him an angel of light to guard him in a dark world.

Ymnus.\

In tenebrarum medio
lux lucis tue radio
sit lucis\ tue meditacio
et lucis operacio.

Non demonis\ suggestio
non hominis incursio
nec mortis sub\itacio
quietis sit turbacio.

Gloria tibi domine
qui\ tali me munimine
custodis a discrimine
in hac\ mundi caligine. Amen.
