Original text and translations

Latin text

Beata Barbara ad locum certaminis ducta
genibus flexis, inclinato capite
martyrii consumationem accepit.

Gloriosam mortem magis quam odibilem vitam complectens
voluntarie praeibat ad supplicium,
genibus flexis, inclinato capite
martyrii consumationem accepit.
