* This poem was printed, in several of the older collections, as a work of St. Bernard of Clairvaux. See Leyser, p. 421. It has also been attributed to Jacobus de Benedictis, an Italian writer of the end of the thirteenth century, who was author of the hymn beginning Stabat mater dolorosa. Leyser, p.2003. This, however, is certainly incorrect, as our poem is found in English MSS. of the thirteenth century. Leyser gives the variations of a foreign MS.
