Cogitationes Cordis eius
in generatione et generationem:
ut eruat a morte animas eorum
et alat eos in fame.
(In Paschal time: Alleluia, Alleluia)
V. Exsultate iusti in Domino
R. Rectos decet collaudatio.
Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto,
sicut erat in principio, et nunc et semper;
et in saecula saeculorum. Amen.
Cogitationes Cordis eius
in generatione et generationem:
ut eruat a morte animas eorum
et alat eos in fame.

This Mass is often sung on First Friday (in those places where a Missa Cantata is possible). It has an extremely beautiful melody.
