Chapter 74OrdV.1.74
Humilitas ad Victoriam
The Cry for Victory
Humilitas calls upon Victory and her heavenly host to bind the Devil.
O Victory, you who conquered this one in the heavens, run with your soldiers and bind this Devil, all of you!
Read the original Latin
O Victoria, que istum in cela superasti, curre cum militibus tuis et omnes ligate Diabolum hunc!
Ordo Virtutum (Order of the Virtues) companion
Let a different Virtue meet you each morning
Chosen Portion walks you through the whole Ordo Virtutum — and Hildegard's Scivias — as free daily devotionals.
The Ordo was performed scene by scene by Hildegard's nuns, and Chosen Portion restores that rhythm — one scene of the Virtues' drama as each day's devotional.
- The complete 84-scene drama, one short scene per day, in modern readable English
- Each portion pairs the scene with its Scripture echoes — 26 references resolved across the play
- Finish Hildegard, then continue with 70+ other works from Europe's royal devotional archive
