These verses celebrate Christ’s crucifixion, its cosmic and salvific effects, and the victory over death-describing the cross, wounds, the opened side, the descent to hell, and the triumph that redeems humanity. The poet contrasts pagan epic subjects with Christian devotion, urging hymns to the true King. He then appeals to Christ for protection and lawful rule for Charles the Bald, decries fraternal conflict among Louis’s sons, and calls for observance of Christian brotherhood and justice. The poem closes with prayers for peace, the preservation of the faithful, and divine recompense for service.
