[1] Vita, dulcedo

Polyphonic ensemble SBX

[C]-C1; Ct-C4; B-F4. Alternatim setting. Anticipatory statements of “vita” (“salve”) motto in B and Ct introduce a slightly paraphrased chant (App. 4) with rhythmic content comparable to other voices. Chant melody associated with “in hac…vale” (mm. 35-43) engages in canon at the lower octave between C and T. Plainsong concurrent with “Et Jesum” and “benedictum” in pars 3 appear in B; for the remainder of pars 3, chant migrates to various voices. Text setting combines syllabic and melismatic styles. Final d (1.p., 2.p., 3.p); to complement chant, 4.p. (verse 8) has final a.
[2] Ad te suspiramus

Polyphonic ensemble SBX

[3] Et Jesum

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.
