    Does anyone have a copy of the following hymns:
    1. Deus tuorum militum
    2. Invicte Martyr, unicum
    3. Æterna Christi munera,
    4. Exsultet orbis gaudiis:
    5. Audit tyrannus anxius
    6. Salvete flores martyrum,
    7. Iesu Rex admirabilis,
    8. Iesu decus angelicum,
    9. Iesu dulcis memoria,
    10. O sola magnarum urbium
    11. Crudelis Herodes, Deum
    12. Sacra iam splendent decorata lychnis
    13. O gente felix hospita,
    14. O lux beata caelitum

    It would be a great help if you post it here.

    Thanks.

    Chants rather than polyphony, yes? If you check here, you'll discover LU has 1,3,4,6,10,11,14; and Antiphonale 1912 has 2,8,9,13; 5,7,12 don't seem to be in the appendix, but the texts are here and the associated tunes are indicted at the Global Chant Database (Google is our friend). I can't help but be curious: how did you come up with this particular list?

    After compiling in three separate books the liturgies of Holy Week (both pre- and post-55) and the Officium Tenebrae, I am working on a hymnal for the Christmas cycle. These are not strictly hymns for Christmas but for the feasts within the Christmas cycle. Thanks, by the way.
