From Oriental country came

Subject: RE: sir donkey? From: T in Oklahome (Okiemockbird) Date: 14 Dec 99 - 02:08 PM The usual tune to those words is Orientis Partibus, which can be found in a number of church hymnals. The words "Conquering kings their titles take from the kings they captive make" were once set to it. The original latin words (one version, anyhow) are:
Orientis partibus T. |
