[1] Vita dulcedo

Polyphonic ensemble SSAB

[C I]-G2; C [II]-G2; [A]-C2; B-C4. High clefs. Entire range, c-g’’. Alternatim setting. Two equal C voices. B tacet in 2.p. Chant (App. 4) introduces partes 1 (“vita” motto) and 3 (“Et Jesum” motive in B) and serves as a cantus firmus in pars 4 (C and B); the chant motive associated with “nobis” in pars 3 (mm. 78-83) appears in all voices (A, B, C I, C II). Repetition of a motive in B of 1.p. (mm. 11-24) and of motive attached to “in hac lachrimarum valle” (mm. 43-53) is reminiscent of a similar procedure in SR309. The imitative contrapuntal texture and text setting are comparable to aforementioned Salve regina settings in LeidGA 1442 (See comments for SR303).

Salve, regina, mater misericordiae;

Vita, dulcedo et spes nostra, salve.

Ad te clamamus exsules filii Hevae.

Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes in hac lacrimarum valle.

Eia ergo, advocata nostra, illos tuos misericordes oculos ad nos converte.

Et Jesum, benedictum fructum ventris tui, nobis post hoc exsilium ostende.

O clemens,

O pia,

O dulcis virgo Maria.
