Description: The text was first published in a 1737 collection called Canzoncine divote under the title Maria contempla il SS. Bambinello che dorme. Three different melodies are associated to it. This one appears to be based, in the stanza, on the same ground bass of the Tarantella carpinese, from Carpino, in the province of Foggia (I-IV-V-I in the minor mode). Third and fourth stanzas and refrain text, traditionally sung to this melody, does not appear in any published work by st. Alphonsus.
