Lyons had a Pentateuch in Latin which was a great rarity, for not only was it in uncials of the fifth century, but it was of the Old Latin version, that made from the Greek before St. Jerome made his version from the Hebrew, which we call the Vulgate.

The two introductory lines preface each stanza. This first one is thus translated by Symonds, whose English version is here used throughout.
