Editor: Pothárn Imre (submitted 2019-09-28).   Score information: A4, 4 pages, 92 kB   Copyright: CPDL

Edition notes: Transcribed from 1574 print. Original key (chiavi naturali) and note values. Alto is in tenor clef. 4 of the 5 voices have "insidias" instead of "insanias". Since, however, no Vulgate manuscript has "insidias", we retained this as an error, and opted for "insanias".

Latin text

Beatus vir cujus est nomen Domini spes ejus, et non respexit in vanitates et insanias falsas.
Multa fecisti tu, Domine Deus meus, mirabilia tua, et cogitationibus tuis non est qui similis sit tibi.
(Ps. 39;5-6a)
