Mozart – Ave Verum Corpus lyrics
Ave, ave verum corpus natum
De Maria virgine
Vere passum immolatum
In cruce pro homine
Cuius latus perforatum
Unda fluxit et sanguine
Esto nobis praegustatum
In mortis examine
In mortis examine

    For me it's a great Communion meditation, rivaling even great praise composed by Thomas Aquinas. Translation: Hail, Oh hail, the true body of Him born of the virgin Mary, who truly suffered and was immolated on the cross for men, and whose side was pierced and from which flowed blood; Be for us a foretaste as we contemplate our death, yes, as we contemplate our death.

    I don't get the exact meaning of "examine". I can't find the verb it comes from. Is it the ablative ... "in the ..... of death" ... and being a 'foretaste' suggests not so much a test ... an examination ... but a opening up ... a finding something ... like when examination means to look intently to find something ... the "ex" suggests 'out of' like 'finding out something'... ???
