General Information
Title: Eterne laudis lilium
Composer: Robert Fayrfax
Number of voices: 5vv Voicing: SATTB
Genre: Sacred, Motet
Language: Latin
Instruments: A cappella
First published:
Description: The text of this motet, as well as being a highly fanciful genealogy of Jesus Christ down the female line, is an acrostic spelling out the name of its dedicatee, Fayrfax's royal patron and quite possibly personal friend, Elizabeth of York, wife of Henry VII. The ‘Anthem of oure lady and Saint Elisabeth’ for which Fayrfax was paid 20 shillings by the queen in 1502 is probably this work.

Latin text
E terne laudis lilium, O dulcis Maria, te
L audat vox angelica, nutrix Christi pia.
I ure prolis glorie detur harmonia,
S alus nostre memoria omni agonia.
A ve radix, flos virginum, O sanctificata.
B enedicta in utero materno creata.
E ras sancta puerpera et inviolata,
T uo ex Iesu filio virgo peramata.
H onestis celi precibus virgo veneraris.
R egis excelsi filii visu iocundaris.
E ius divino lumine tu nusquam privaris.
G aude sole splendidior virgo singularis.
I ssachar quoque Nazaphat necnon Ismaria,
N ati ex Iesse stipite qua venit Maria,
A tque Maria Cleophe sancto Zacharia,
A qua patre Elisabeth, matre Sophonia
N atus est Dei gratia Iohannes Baptista.
G audebat clauso Domino in matrice cista.
L inee ex hoc genere est Evangelista
I ohannes. Anne filia ex Maria ista
E st Iesus Dei filius natus in hunc mundum,
cujus cruoris tumulo mundatur immundum.
Conferat nos in gaudium in evum iocundum,
qui cum Patre et spiritu sancto regnat in unum. Amen
