"As is often the case in works of this period, the parts indicate that soprano(s) may sing one (or both) of the tenor parts. The text follows in the Catholic tradition of litanies, by presenting a series of entreaties, in this case to the Madonna, each often followed by ora pro nobis (“pray for us”). During its approximately six minutes, the three voices at times present the same text in harmony, at times present petitions sequentially and with melodic variation, and at times present varied text."
