<poem>
O quam glorifica luce coruscas,
Stirpis Davidicæ regia proles.
Sublimis residens, Virgo Maria,
Supra cæligenas ætheris .
 
Tu cum virgineo mater honore,
Ang(e)lorum Domino pectoris aulam
Sacris visceribus casta parasti;
Natus hinc Deus est corpore Christus.
 
Quem cunctus venerans orbis adorat,
cui nunc rite genuflectitur omne;
A quo te, petimus, subveniente,
Abjectis tenebris, gaudia lucis.
 
Hoc largire Pater luminis omnis,
Natum per proprium, Flamine sacro,
Qui tecum nitida vivit in æthera
Regnans, ac moderans sæcula cuncta.
Amen.

General Information

Title: O quam glorifica I (another anonymous setting is found in Tr. 87)
Composer: Anonymous

Number of voices: 3vv   Voicing: ATB

Genre: SacredOffice hymn

Language: Latin
Instruments: a cappella
Published: Trent codices

Description: A Blessed Virgin Mary hymn transcribed from the Trent manuscript tr92. The notes' values, accidentals and colourings are as in the manuscript. The time signature is missing, from the context I assumed it would be the "tempus perfectum". The coloured notes in the Superius are in "proportio sesquialtera" (3 vs. 2), in the two lower voices are hemiolæ. The notes' values within the ligaturæ are as follows: the left upstemmed notes are semibreves - the unstemmed notes are breves - the right downstemmed note is a longa. The "musica ficta" suggestions are in the MIDI and MusicXML files.
