Martyrum gemma latria,
Tyranni trucis impia,
Quintine, sapientia,
Verba spernens mavortia
Jubentis terribilia
Machinari supplicia,
Romanorum prosapia
Cenatorum celestia,
Rictiovari solia
Effectans et pitania
Admovens supercilia
Ambianensis propria
Gentis alacrimonia
Humilitate socia,
Victis volens martyria
Oleique ledentia
Martyrii redolentia,
Quibis fit appoplecia,
Prece cujus anadia
Datur cecis et gracia
Cunctorum purgans vicia
Infirmorum pernicia
Sospitati vestigia
Claudorum filocalia
Prebentur morbis gravia,
Cujus fulget provincia
Virmandorum presentia,
Quo livor advaricia
Cadunt, gula, luxuria,
Ita fastus, accidia
Malaque cuncta noxia,
Quo viget pacientia,
Sides spes et prudentia,
Quo simus ad palatia
Celorum refulgentia,
Ubi pax est et gloria.
Diligenter inquiramus
Quintini preconia;
Congaudenter impendamus
Mimini suffragia.
Fuit vite mirabilis,
Despuit obnoxia
Fuit Deo laudabilis,
Meruit suppedia.
Illimis bacca fons erat
Bargueries nobilis
Animis Deo venerat
Mollicies fragilis.
Colentes hunc karissime
Exultabunt suaviter;
Canentes nobilissime
Dabunt laudes dulciter.
A Christo honoratus.
