Advent Calendar 2011: Week 4 Thursday

Fontana della Pigna - Fountain of the Pine Cone
Piazza San Marco

O Rex Gentium, et desideratus earum,
lapisque angularis, qui facis utraque unum:
veni, et salva hominem,
quem de limo formasti.


O King of the nations, and their desire,
the cornerstone making both one:
Come and save the human race,
which you fashioned from clay.

O Antiphon for December 22
