    Other verses could be adapted to either of these settings, or chanted (with the starting pitch as C#, or "do" as A).

    For example:
    -Pange Lingua sung with 3 voices
    -verse 2 chanted by solo cantor
    -verse 3 chanted by 3 voices
    -verse 4 solo
    -Tantum Ergo sung with 3 voices


    Cantus firmus in tertius voice for Pange Lingua and secundus for Tantum Ergo (subbed to tertius for a few notes).

    Please excuse any ugliness in the notation, these are the first scores I've made with Musescore and I'm still learning the finer points of this program. As always, the midi recording is a poor example, but an example nonetheless, of what was intended.

    Feel free to use wherever, whenever. Please let me know if this is sung and share any recordings (if available).

    PANIS LINGUA
    O tongue, sing the mystery of the glorious body, and of the precious blood,
    which, as price for the world, the Fruit of the generous womb, the King of the
    peoples shed.


    TANTUM ERGO
    Therefore such a great Sacrament let us venerate with bowed heads: and let the
    ancient teaching give way to the new rite: let faith supplement the incapacity
    of the senses.
