[D]-C2; Ct I-C4; T-C4; Ct II-F4. Alternatim setting. Anticipatory statements (1.p., 2.p., 3.p.) introduce chant (App. 4) that serves as a cantus firmus (T) realized in breves and semibreves. Plainsong briefly influences other voices: Ct I (mm. 31-5) and Ct I/C (“nobis,” mm. 76-80). Except for “Et Jesum” segment (mm. 45-51), set apart in duple mensuration, the remainder of the antiphon is defined by triple mensuration. D is only texted voice of partes 1, 2 and “benedictum…ostende” of 3; D and T are texted for 4.p., “O pia.” All voices are underlayed with text for the short passage, “Et Jesum.” Final g (1.p., 2.p., 3.p.), d (4.p.); b♭ signature (Ct I and T), b♭ and e♭ signature (C and Ct II).

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.
