*Note:

1:53: Venīte nōbīscum ¦ 1:56: ad hōs montēs ascendendōs superandōsque

Come with us ¦ to climb and conquer these mountains

Vincent uses a construction known as the gerundive which is formed from a participle that has a very specific meaning; the participle is called the future passive participle

• ascendendus, -a, -um: which is to be climbed
• superandus, -a, -um: which is to be conquered

Venīte nōbiscum ¦ ad hōs montēs [i] ascendendōs [ii] superandōsque

Come with us ¦ literally: to these mountains [i] which are to be climbed and [ii] to be conquered

= Come with us to climb and conquer these mountains
