Editor: Humphrey Thompson (submitted 2017-07-09).   Score information: A3, 10 pages, 120 kB   Copyright: CPDL
Edition notes: Missing Tenor supplied by the editor. The chant fits perfectly most of the time, except for the ends of the phrases in the chant which specifically root it in the Phrygian mode. It seems that Mundy wanted to avoid this mode, and seems to have altered the shape of the cantus firmus.

Videte miraculum matris Domini
concepit virgo virilis ignara consortii
Stans onerata nobili onere Maria
et matrem se letam cognoscit
que se nescit uxorem.
