Responsory "Vivens in mundo labili" for the feast of Saint Clare

Vivens in mundo labili
sponso coniuncta nobili
sursum deliciatur clausoque
carne fragili
tanquam in vase fictili
Thesauro gloriatur
Sit in rota versatuli fulta virtute
stabili cum Christo delectatur.

Living in a fleeting world,
Having been married to a noble husband,
She delights from on high
and with her fragile flesh closed
in an earthen vessel,
she glories in the treasure.
Let her be placed on a moveable wheel;
supported by stable virtue she delights with Christ.
