Original text and translations

Latin text

Aegra currit ad medicum,
vas ferens aromaticum,
et a morbo multiplici verbo curatur medici.

English translation Translation supplied by Paul Pascal, Professor Emeritus of Classics, University of Washington

A sick woman runs to a doctor,
Bearing an aromatic vessel,
And she is cured from a complex disease by a word from the doctor.
