An eighth(8th) verse added in the mid 19th century to the Adeste Fideles
to celebrate the Feast of the Epiphany:
8. Stella duce, Magi, Christum adorantes,
Aurum, thus, et myrrham dant munera;
Jesu infanti corda praebeamus.
Lo! star-led chieftains,
Magi, Christ adoring,
Offer Him frankincense,gold and myrrh;
We to the Christ child,
Bring our heart's oblations:
