[C I]-C1; [C II]-C1; [C III]-C1; [T I]-C3; [T II]-C3; [B]-F4. Alternatim setting. Free use of canon involving chant (App. 4) characterizes partes 1, 3, and 4. In 1.p. T II follows C I at the lower octave and distance of two breves until measure 25; for the remaining five measures T I continues in free counterpoint while C I is silent. To begin 3.p. the “Et Jesum” motive permeates the homophonic texture (mm. 129-39) followed by a canon between T I and C I at the upper octave and distance of two measures. Symmetry defines the second and fourth partes each opening with a three-voice texture of C I, C II, and C III followed by the three lower voices. In addition, a canon in augmentation distinguishes each pars: 2.p., C I/T I, mm. 34-40=40-51; 4.p., C I/T I, mm. 219-22=222-6. Symmetry extends to presence of triple mensuration in outer partes and duple mensuration for inner partes. A melismatic textual setting prevails. Final g (1.p., 2.p., 3.p.); final d, for 4.p. complements the chant where verse 8 concludes on the dominant; b♭ signature.

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.
