EMBLEMA XL.
Fraternis luna ut radiis adversa refulgens,
Pleno coruscat lumine.
Sic Christi oppositos spectans Ecclesia vultus,
Splendore lucet integro.
Just as the moon facing the sun, reflecting its brotherly rays, shines with a full light, so the Church gazing on the face of Christ in front of it shines with total splendour.
