- CPDL #07927: Finale 2000
- Editor: Ilse Baltzer (submitted 2004-09-27). Score information: A4, 8 pages, 196 kB Copyright: Personal
- Edition notes: Typeset by Sabine Cassola, 3 part motet
Possible score errors:
- In the title, the second word should be 'integra', not 'intagra'.
- In bar 9, Cantus, the descending scale should be maintained, so the G should be an E: this is a melodic line that is repeated a number of times.
- In bar 40, Tenor 1, an editorial B natural is desirable, to avoid the tritone.
- In bar 102, Tenor 1, the second note should be G rather than F (other sources confirm this).
- In bar 136, Tenor 1's first note again requires an editorial natural, I think. - Mick Swithinbank

Latin text
Inviolata, integra et casta es Maria:
Quae es effecta fulgida caeli porta.
O Mater alma Christi carissima:
Suscipe pia laudum praeconia.
Te nunc flagitant devota corda et ora:
Nostra ut pura pectora sint et corpora.
Tua per precata dulcisona:
Nobis concedas veniam per saecula.
O benigna! O Regina! O Maria!
Quae sola inviolata permansisti.
English translation
Inviolate, whole and chaste is Mary:
you are the shining gate of heaven.
O kind mother, dearest to Christ,
accept our faithful hymns of praise.
To you our hearts and lips cry out:
may our souls and bodies be pure.
Through your prayers' sweet sounds
grant us forgiveness for ever.
O kindly one! O Queen! O Mary!
you alone remain inviolate.
