    I see that the propers of the Graduale are mostly limited to extracts from the various commons.

    Does anyone know whether any propers were conceded to particular places in relation to 26 July?

    I am as interested in Office propers and votive Antiphons (and the like) as I am Mass propers.

    Finally, has anyone ever seen a hymn to St Anne set in the same meter as the hymn tune of the same name?

    Here's a hymn to St. Anne with the 86 86 meter of the hymn tune ST ANNE (taken from this post on the Forum).

    1. O Lady high in glory raised,
    Whose daughter ever blest;
    The Sovereign of the skies hath laid
    On her maternal breast.

    2. What we had lost in hapless Eve.
    Thy Virgin Child restores.
    Op’ning to us in Christ a-new,
    The everlasting doors.

    3. O gain-celestial light and grace,
    Dear heir of endless fame,
    For us and all who memory keep
    Of they immortal name.

    4. To Him, the Savior of the world,
    Whom Anna’s daughter bore,
    Be with the Sire and Paraclete
    All glory evermore.
