Thou dwellest in a sublime height, O Virgin Mary, Looking down on all the heavenly regions. Thou, with the honor of being a virgin and mother, hast prepared for the Lord of Angels thy bosom as a sacred palace, thy most holy womb, from whence God took flesh, and was born Christ. Verso Translation: Thou, whom the whole world venerates and pays homage, before whom all now rightfully bend the knee, To whom we humbly beseech in our misery and darkness, coming before thee surrounded by the joy of pure light. O Father of all lights, through this sacred Flame give unto us thy only Begotten Son, who with Thee reigns brilliantly in the heavens, ruling and governing for all ages. Amen. Verse.

Title A name given to the resource E0028 Leaf from a Book of Hours (Horæ Beatæ Mariæ Virginis) Subject The topic of the resource Book of Hours Description An account of the resource Northern France; Middle 15th Century. Latin Text; Angular Gothic Script. This Book of Hours shows definite characteristics of the manuscript art of France and the Netherlands of about 1450 A.D. It was probably one of many copies prepared for sale at a shrine to which devout pilgrims came to worship or to seek a cure. The spiked letters and the detatched ornamental bar are unmistakably Flemish in spirit, while the free ivy sprays are distinctively French. The burnished metal in the decorations shows the use of alloyed gold (oro di metà) as well as silver. Various metals were added in different localities to the fine gold. English illuminations frequently had a decided orange hue, while the French had a lemon cast. The quality of the gold was best enhanced by the use of burnishing tools equipped with an emerald, a topaz, or a ruby. Less successful burnishers contained an agate or the tooth of a wolf, a horse, or a dog. The metal alloys have tarnished, and there is visible chemical deterioration of the vellum. Some of the leaves display smudging of the ink when still wet. Text: The leaves we have seen indicate that this Book of Hours accords with the Use of Metz; see especially Leaf 28 in the Kent State, Denison, Kenyon, and Lima portfolios for evidence. This leaf contains text from the Hours of the Virgin at Vespers, including the entire text of the hymn "O quam glorifica luce."
