Responsory in Paschal Time, after John 20: 13, 15, 18

Congratulamini mihi is a wonderful and joyous expression of the Resurrection of Christ. After so much mourning and prayer for the dead, it provides a fitting conclusion in the celebration of Christ’s rising from the dead, the belief in which gave life to Charles’s hopes for his own resurrection into the Heavenly presence with his beloved Isabella.

Congratulamini mihi est une merveilleuse et joyeuse expression de la résurrection du Christ. Après tant de déplorations et de prières pour les morts, voilà la conclusion rêvée pour célébrer la résurrection du Christ d’entre les morts, qui nourrit les espoirs de Charles quant à sa propre résurrection, en la présence céleste, aux côtés de sa bien-aimée Isabelle.

Français: Hypérion

Congratulamini mihi ist eine wunderbare und freudenvolle Darstellung der Auferstehung Jesu Christi. Nach so viel Trauer und Beten für die Toten liefert dieses Stück mit der Auferstehung Christi einen passenden Abschluss. Der Glaube daran nährte Karls Hoffnung auf seine eigene Auferstehung zur Wiedervereinigung mit seiner geliebten Isabella im Himmel.
