Sequence-hunting: Stephenmass
-
Am looking for the plainchant notation for the sequence "Heri mundus ex[s]ultavit", once used for the feast of the Protomartyr Stephen (December 26).
Anyone have any leads or sources?

And, for anyone interested (I was, as my parish is a "St. Stephen's"):
A very decent English translation (in the original meter) by John Mason Neale.
(Which I wish knew about last year, when our titular feast fell on a Sunday. The St. Stephen hymn in the 1982 is much less inspired/inspiring. Ah, well.)
