Luca Bettini
lat
Jesù è nato...figliuol di Dio-b
BaMz3/5:7/5 (xxX ABABBX)
note: the ultimate musical source for both poems is ‘Ben venga Maggio,’ but it interesting here to see Bettini’s very savonarolan text having absorbed this music of the secular carnival song to the extent that Bettini’s text can function as a cc. title. For more on ‘Ecce quam bonum,’ see this title as a lauda with cc. = ‘Ecco’l Messia.’
