18970 | Jim Cooke | | 2009-02-26 | 2009-02-26 | Source - Piae Cantiones, where the refrain melody is in the Tenor (see the Lutheran hymn 'Danket dem herren'). The alto second syllable of 'virginae' is a tone lower in the source (Piae Cantiones ed. Woodward) and I suspect it was ficta practice to flatten the bass Es as in the second edition - Rostock 1625). ''Piae Cantiones'' does not provide a melody for the verses, the present one is as recorded by Steeleye Span.
