note: this link cited in D’AnconaPP, 476, but omitted from other secondary literature. Text of ‘Questa sposa’ ed. LuisiLG, i, 398-9, and is found in 14thc. laudarios like BML, Ashburnham 423, vol. 129r.

note: Ven preserves à2 setting of another lauda, ‘Alzando gli occhi, vidi nel oriente uno angelo nuovo’ (see Diederichs, 190f; music ed. 378-9). D’AnconaPP, 476 calls the cc. a ‘canzonetta a ballo di Ser Giovanni Fiorentino’. This 14thc. text is ed. in CarducciCBSM, 176-8, where it is attributed to Ser Giovanni Fiorentino, and derived from his Pecorone (1378).

note: on siciliane, see PirrottaMC, esp. chs. 4 & 5.

note: not a likely match, given the incompatibility of the poetic forms; the title in M4 may refer to a lauda in the contemporaneous Ch266 laudario, ‘O Jesù Cristo padre mio signore’, which is identical in form to this cc., and for which the opening line of the first verse is ‘Mercé ti chieggio, o Signor mio benigno’(where it bears a cc. incipit of ‘La bionda treza’).

note: lauda attr. to ‘Ser Bindo da Staggia’ in CS1544.

note: MaceyB, 115-17. ‘Lauda di S. Maria Magdalena a pie’ di Christo’, sung, according to BecheriniSR, 205, at the conclusion of the Rappresentazione di un miracolo di S. Maria Maddalena.

note: see also modo proprio for ‘Jesu splendor’

note: lauda text entered into Ch266 without cc.

note: lauda re. Nativity
