Sequence for the feast of Pentecost and throughout the octave. It was probably written by Pope Innocent III (1161-1216). About 40 translations are in existence. The English title given is by J Austin; the fourth verse reads:

Lord, wash our sinful stains away,

Refresh from heaven our barren clay,

Our wounds and bruises heal;

To Thy sweet yoke our stiff necks bow,

Warm with Thy fire our hearts of snow,

Our wand'ring feet repeal.
