Transcribed and edited by Lewis Jones

Source: Motets Book IV, (1590) Prague: Nigrini. No. 54. The title page (taken from the Cantus partbook) reads:

QUARTUS TOMUS./MUSICI OPERIS, HARMO-/NIARUM QUATUOR, QUINQUE, SEX, OCTO/ET PLURIUM

VOCUM, QUAE EX SANCTO CATHOLICAE/ECCLESIAE USU ITA SUNT DISPOSITAE, UT/omni tempor infervire

in Latin.]/PRAGAE, TYPIS GEORGII NIGRINI. Anno M. D. XC./Cum Gratia & Privilegio Sac. Caes: Mai: ut eria pagina decla

The printers' V's have been replaced with U's where appropriate.

Editorial method:

Original part and partbook names, time signatures, pitch and note durations have been retained. Clefs have been modernised,
with originals appearing in prefatory staves. The overall range of each part appears in black stemless notes before the initial time
signature. The music has been barred according to the various time signatures.

Editorial accidentals appear above the stave, whereas courtesy accidentals appear in parentheses. Ligatures appear as continuous
square brackets above the stave, coloration as interrupted square brackets.

Text and translation:

Original spelling and punctuation has been retained and standardised. Ditto marks in the sourse underlay have been expanded
using italics.

In coelestibus regnis sanctorum habitatio est, In the heavenly realm is the dwelling place of the saints,
et in aeterno requies eorum. and their eternal rest.

Exultabunt sancti in gloria laetabuntur in cubilibus suis. The saints will rejoice in glory, shall be joyful in their beds.

Liturgical use: suitable for All Saints, or any saint's day.

Critical comments: containing source readings not retained in the Edition. In the order bar, part, object, comment.
