Folio 21v
Commemorations of the saints, continued.
Saint George.
Hymn, Georgi martir inclite.
A hymn commemorating St George (see HL, 3, p 317). The most chivalrous of
knights, he rescued a king's daughter from a dragon, after which she gave

cleansed of our misdeeds, there to praise Christ.

laudes Christo cum gracia. Amen.
Ora\ pro nobis beate Georgi martyr,
ut hostes visibiles et\
