Pangamus Nerio debita cantica, Quem supra nitidi sidera verticis, Virtus, et meritum sustulit inclytum Carpturum pia gaudia.
Sicuri subitis dum videt ignibus Aedes, quas habitat, fletibus abstinet, Flammas cum penitus quiverit horridas Paucis vincere lacrymis.
Oblatum patrui munus, et aureos Nummos magnanimus calcat, et impiger Romam digreditur, quam magis omnibus Illustrem facit urbibus.
Noctes sub specubus, corpora martyrum Quas implent, vigilat sedulus integras ; Ex ipsis satagens discere mortuis Normam, qua bene viveret.
Almae sit Triadi gloria perpetim, Quam caelum, barathrum, terraque suscipit : Quae nobis Nerii det prece iugia Dulcis gaudia Patriae. Amen
Hymn
1. Due praises sing in Philip's sight, Who now 'mid heaven's stars so bright There dwells in sweet delight; Reward for virtue famed.
2. While home he sees consumed by flame, From weeping, heedless, yet refrains, E'en through few tears would serve to tame The menace of the blaze.
3. He spurns, for such his noble heart, His uncle's wealth and swift departs To Rome, whose name he sets apart: A city of renown.
4. Whole nights of prayer in catacombs, Amid the martyrs' many tombs He learns from those who've met their doom The art of living well.
5. To loving Trinity e'er be praise, Whom heaven, abyss and earth upraise, Whose gift Heaven's joy for all our days, Bestowed on Philip's prayer. Amen.
