O foenix culprit!

'Exsultet': 'O felix culpa!' (Holy Saturday (Easter eve) prayer sung on lighting the Paschal candle, beginning with 'Exsultet' and including the phrase 'O felix culpa, quae talem ac tantum meruit habere Redemptorem!': 'O happy fault, that merited such and so great a Redeemer!'; the 'O felix culpa!' notion is possibly based on St Augustine: without Adam's sin the redeemer would not have been born; also, without Lucifer's sin Adam would not have been created) (Felix Culpa)
