Original Text

Si tibi gratia,
si sapientia formaque detur,
sola superbia destruit omnia
si comitetur.

English Translation

If to you are given
charm, wisdom, and beauty,
pride alone, if it be added,
destroys all.

This piece was performed by the SFBC in Jacob Handl: Opus Musicum III on May 14, 2005.
