Cum beatus Ignatius, motet for 5 voices
Cum beatus Ignatius
damnatus esset ad bestias,
et ardore patiendi rugientes,
audirent leones, ait:
Frumentum Christi sum,
dentibus bestiarum immolar,
ut panis mundus inveniar.

When the blessed Ignatius
was condemmed to the animals
and heard the roaring lions,
in his burning desire to suffer, he said:
I am the grain of Christ,
I shall be grown by the teeth of wild animals
so as to prove myself pure bread.

et totius corporus contritio
et tota tormenta diaboli
in me veniant:
tantum ut Christo fruar.

the wild beast's breaking of my bones
and cleaving of my limbs
the destruction of my whole body
and all the torments of the Devil:
let them come upon me
if only I may have Christ.

Salve regina, antiphon for 6 voices
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 exilium ostende.
O clemens, o pia,
o dulcis Virgo Maria.

Hail, holy Queen, mother of mercy;
Hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope.
To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve.
To you do we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping
in this our vale of tears.
Turn then, O most gracious advocate,
Your most merciful eyes toward us.
And after this our exile, show unto us,
The blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus.
O clement, o merciful,
O sweet Virgin Mary.
