31 May - Vesperas - Hymnus

Ave Maris Stella 1

Ave maris stella, Dei mater alma Atque semper virgo Felix cæli porta…

Hail, Star of the Sea, nurturing Mother of God and ever Virgin, happy gate of Heaven...

The feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel celebrates the appearance of the Most Holy Virgin, in the Holy Land, to Saint Simon Stock, Superior General of the Order of Carmelites, on 16 July 1252. It was during this appearance that Mary presented the scapular, a piece of brown cloth, a “special sign of my favour, which I have obtained for you and for the children of Mount Carmel. He who dies clothed with this habit shall be preserved from eternal fire. It is the badge of salvation, a shield in time of danger, and a pledge of special peace and protection.”

In the hymn Ave maris stella sung at Vespers, “maris stella” means Star of the Sea. This title given to Our Lady is one of the possible etymologies of the name “Mary”. This composition has long been attributed to Saint Bernard, and it would most probably have been written between the 8th and 9th centuries.

The hymnal of Solesmes from 1988 includes three melodies for this hymn. The melody sung for Our Lady of Mount Carmel at Jouques is the most well-known melody, dating from the 12th century:
