Transcriptions and translations of 'Stabat iuxta Christi crucem', 'Miserere miseris' and 'Ave regina celorum' have been prepared from available original sources by Susan Hellauer.

The tune of the painchant hymn 'O gloriosa domina' from the Worcester antiphoner has been transcribed from the facsimile collection edited by Dom André Mocquereau and published in 1922 by Solesmes as Vol. XII of Paléographie Musicale: Les principaux Manuscrits de Chant (reprinted in 1971 by Herbert Lang & Cie S.A., Berne). The text, from a manuscript in the Pierpont Morgan Library, New York, was translated by Susan Hellauer.

Selected performing material ('Þe milde lomb isprad o rode', 'Stond wel, moder, under roode' and 'Veni mater gracie/Dou way, Robin') was drawn from Medieval English Songs, edited by E. J. Dobson and F.Ll. Harrison and published by Cambridge University Press, New York.

The remaining music was performed using material published in Polyphonic Music of the Fourteenth Century, edited and translated by Ernest H. Sanders, Frank Ll. Harrison, and Peter Lefferts, and published by Éditions de L'Oiseau-Lyre. 'Ave Maria gracia plena', 'O Maria stella maris', 'Stillat in stellam radium', 'O Maria virgo pia', 'In te concipitur', 'Jesu Christes milde moder', 'O mors moreris/O vita vera/Mors', 'Ave Maria salus hominum', and 'Memor esto tuorum' are found in Volume XIV; 'Salve virgo singularis' and 'Salve virgo tonatis solium' are from Volume XVII. Special thanks to Mrs. Margarita Hanson for permission to use this material.
