A motet for St Cecilia's Day published in Cantiones selectissimae liber primus, Augsburg, 1548, where it forms the second part of Virgo gloriosa in substitution for the more usual second part, Domine Jesu Christe. It is offered here as a discrete motet. This edition is offered at original pitch (high chiavette) for S.A.T.B. or transposed down a fourth for A.T.T.B.
Lyrics: Latin Antiphon

Cantantibus organis Cecilia virgo in corde suo soli Domino decantabat dicens:
Fiat Domine cor meum et corpus meum immaculatum ut non confundar.

While organs played the virgin Cecilia sang in her heart to the one Lord saying:
Let my Lord make my heart and my body unspotted, that I may not be confounded.
