This choral motet (SATB) was written in 1999 by Proulx for the Cathedral Singers of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Melbourne, Australian, Dr. Geoffrey Cox, Director. There are two copies of the handwritten manuscript in this file, one of which has a note by Proulx that he thought the music was too difficult and that it should be thinned out. He also wrote a change in the placement of the syllables of the first words of the piece. It is unclear if this piece has ever been published.
