Reliability Tier3
A crowd-edited tertiary reference, used here to confirm the wording of the "unto us a child is born" verse attributed to Isaiah, independently corroborated by the Victoria and Albert Museum's own catalogue description of an actual circa 1470 to 1480 roundel inscribing the same verse in Latin.
