"From a printed volume displayed in a glass case at this page at the cathedral in Quito, Ecuador. An official at the cathedral described this as a 16th Century edition of Guerrero's works. The original work is in parts without barring. It may have been intended that the performance of this work should be preceded by the plainsong of the first verse of the "Sanctorum meritis" hymn (compare Victoria's setting of "Sanctorum meritis") and/or that the 3rd to 6th verses of the hymn should also be sung, either to the plainsong or to Guerrero's setting."

Sanctorum meritis inclyta gaudia. pangamus socii gestaque fortia num gliscit animus promere cantibus victorum genus optimum. '''Hi sunt quos retinens mundus inhorruit.''' '''ipsum nam sterili flore per aridum.''' '''sprevere penitus teque secuti sunt.''' '''rex Christe bone caelitus.''' Hi pro te furias atque ferocia. calcarunt hominum saevaque verbera. cessit his lacerans fortiter ungula nec carpsit penetralia. Ceduntur gladiis more bidentium nec murmur resonat nec querimonia sed corde tacito mens bene conscia. conservat patientiam. Quae vox quae poterit lingua retexere. quae tu martyribus munera praeparas rubri nam fluido sanguine laureis ditantur bene fulgidis. Te summa deitas unaque poscimus ut culpas abluas noxia subtrahas. des pacem famulis nos quoque gloriam per cuncta tibi saecula.
