Slightly understaffed, but enough to make it work. We found out fairly late that we were doing it. Offertory motet was a repeat of Sunday's P10 (all Polish and Marian in honor of St. Maximilian Kolbe)
I took the contextual passages from Song of Songs (Songs 2) and set them to tone 1(g) with alternation between men singing the part of Solomon and the women singing that of the Bride. We used vv 1-3, 10-11, 13-14 with the Sicut sung as an antiphon.
