E02789: Latin hymn to *Severinus (hermit and monk of Noricum, S00848) for the feast day of Severinus. On the basis of the episodes told in the Life of Severinus by Eugippius (E02347), it praises Severinus for the miracles he performed, the help he gave to people oppressed by war, and his writing of a monastic rule. Presumably written in Naples, at an uncertain date, possibly late antique.
