Scores

[1] (Vita dulcedo)

Polyphonic ensemble SATB

D-C1; A-C3; T-C4; B-F4. Alternatim setting. Chant (App. 4) assigned to T as cantus firmus in continuous breves for each pars, is surrounded by three independent voices. In addition to the structural unity provided by a cantus firmus, an ascending stepwise motive encompassing the interval of a ninth is first presented in B of 1.p. (mm. 7-8), but makes six appearances in 2.p. (B, mm. 34-6; A, mm. 41-3; B, mm. 45-7; A, mm. 49-51; B, mm. 60-2; and A, 64-6). Text incipits at beginning of each pars, or of textual phrases suggest limited concern for text underlay. Final g, b♭ signature.
[2] (Ad te suspiramus)

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.
