William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 1992. The stage direction calls for the cast to sing three times in The Harrowing of Hell. However the first time when people sing in the play, located just after Christ's first speech, there is no specification. The same happens the second time after Christ promises to take them from this place. It is difficult to say exactly which piece of music was chosen for the first two sections.
Te humiles famuli modulis vennerando piis.
Se iubeas flagitant variis liberare malis. It is a simple song, praising God for intervening in their sin. Ut queant laxis resonare fibris Mira gestorum famuli tuorum, Solve polluti Labii reatum, Sancte Joannes. This song seems fitting because it comes in after Christ has fulfilled all of his promises.
