“O quam speciosa gemma et margarita quam lucis mundi illustrat gratia!”

O how splendid a jewel and pearl that the grace of the light of the world [Jesus Christ] illumines!

“Intuitu provocavit ad lacrymas, quasi in mentem ei reducens quoties negaverat, quod ei praedixerat, nec potuit in tenebris remanere quem lux mundi respexit.”

Having looked upon [Peter], [Jesus] provoked him to tears, as if recalling to his mind that as much as he had denied what he had foretold to him, what the light of the world looked upon could not remain in darkness.
