Him whom h, sea, and sky Honour, adore and proclaim, Rulg the threept mache, My s womb cries. He whom sun, moon and all thgs Serve due time Is nurtured a ma s womb Transfused with hea s grace. Mother, blessed these gifts, Whose healy tificer, Whose hand contas the h and sky, Is enclosed the k of your womb. Blessed by the healy messenger, Ma fertile of the Holy Spirit, The one sired by all nations Is revealed to all through your womb. Glory be to Thee, O Lord, Born of a Virg, with the Father and the Holy Spirit, world without end. Source: William Byrd: Gradualia, ac cantiones sacræ... Liber primus (2nd edition, 1610), vol.3 no.1.
