The notes' values within the "ligaturæ" are as follows: the left upstemmed notes are semibreves - the unstemmed notes are breves – the right downstemmed notes are longæ. The “musica ficta” suggestions are in the MIDI and MusicXML files.

Latin text
Gaude, virgo, quæ de cælis
Dulce per os Gabrielis
Suscepisti gaudium.
Gaude, mater incarnati
Verbi Dei ex te nati,
Creatoris omnium.
Gaude, quia vitam dedit,
Christus cum de morte redit
Surgens die tertia
Gaude, quia tuus natus
Est ad cælos exaltatus
Deus super omnia.
Gaude, virgo, Dei mater,
Quam assumpsit Deus pater
Ad cæli palatia.
Hæc cura tibi memoramus,
Fac, ut tecum maneamus
In celesti curia.
