Italian original Cite

BELLA DUM LATE FURERENT ET URBES. - Hymn of Vespers for the feast of the seven holy founders of the Order of the Servants of Mary, canonized by Leo XIII in 1888. The celebration of the feast was extended to the universal Church. The hymn alludes to the deeds of the seven Florentine patricians who, in an era of civil strife, withdrew to Monte Senario in penitent contemplation of the sorrows of the Virgin. Its author was Fr. Galletti of the same Order, and it was revised by Leo XIII.
