about

A piece by an unknown composer from the 1400s.

lyrics

Nova, Nova
"Ave" fitt ex "Eva

Gabriel of high degree,
He came down from the Trinity
From Nazareth to Galilee,
Nova, Nova

Nova, Nova
"Ave" fitt ex "Eva"

He met a maiden in a place;
He kneelëd down before her face;
He said: "Hail, Mary, full of grace!"
Nova, Nova

Nova, Nova
"Ave" fitt ex "Eva

When the maiden saw all this,
She was sore abashed, ywis,
Lest that she had done amiss.
Nova, Nova

Nova, Nova
"Ave" fitt ex "Eva

Then said the angel: "Dread not you,
Ye shall conceive in all virtue
A child whose name shall be Jesu."
Nova, Nova

Nova, Nova
"Ave" fitt ex "Eva

Then said the maid: "How may this be,
Godës Son to be born of me?
I know not of man's carnality."
Nova, Nova

Nova, Nova
"Ave" fitt ex "Eva

Then said the angel anon right:
"The Holy Ghost is on thee alight;
There is no thing unpossible to God Almight."
Nova, Nova

Nova, Nova
"Ave" fitt ex "Eva

Then said the angel anon:
"It is not fully six months agone,
Since Saint Elizabeth conceived Saint John."
Nova, Nova

Nova, Nova
"Ave" fitt ex "Eva

Then said the maid anon quickly:
"I am Godës own truly,
Ecce ancilla Domini."
Nova, Nova

Nova, Nova
"Ave" fitt ex "Eva
