The Magnificat is anonymous in the source. It is described as ‘very probably’ by Giovanni Biffi on a label attached by Matteo Tosi to the upper right corner of the front cover (exterior). It is attributed to Giovanni Rovetta in I-Vnm, It. IV 1134 (=10949) and to Giovanni Croce in I-CHc 50.D.45 (=17844): cf. Boscolo Cucco: Catalogo, no. 865 (for I-CHc) and Collarile: Suono dell’eterno.

2
Et exultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo.

4
Quia fecit mihi magna qui potens est,
et sanctum nomen eius.

6
Fecit potentiam in brachio suo,
dispersit superbos mente cordis sui.

8
Esurientes implevit bonis
et divites dimisit inanes.

10
Sicut locutus est ad patres nostros
Abraham et semini eius in saecula.

12
Sicut erat in principio et nunc et semper
et in saecula saeculorum.
Amen.
