[Note: Instead of the five Psalm antiphons here listed in First Vespers, Dominican tradition going back at least to 1335, represented by the Poissy Antiphonary (images below), uses only the first antiphon as a "super-psalm" antiphon for all five Psalms.
This office shows Thomas' familiarity with the chant repertoire of the Liturgy of the Hours, and his ability to call upon previous compositions to indicate the melodies to be used for this new office.
The "Contra" indications of which melodies to use for the texts seem to be the work of Thomas himself. It is a matter of speculation whether he composed the melodies for those texts which have no "Contra".
"Contra" references to full offices such as for Bernard and Thomas of Canterbury are not in Dominican tradition, but were part of Roman or Benedictine tradition, familiar to Thomas.]

Hymn: Pange lingua gloriosi	Contra, Pange lingua gloriosi praelium certaminis, in Passione domini.
Raise your voice to praise the glorious Body under mystery, with the Blood so pure and precious which in payment for the world Son of Mary's womb most noble, King of all the nations shed. For us given, for us brought forth from the Virgin never touched. In the world he lived and traveled, spreading seed of saving word. Then the days he spent among us he brought to a wondrous end. On the night of his last supper with his brothers he reclined. He did all the Law commanded, setting out the food prescribed. To the band of twelve Apostles handed he himself as food. Word made flesh took bread and blessed it, by a word turned it to flesh. Wine became Christ's blood the same way, even though it can't be sensed. All a heart sincere requires is to rest on faith alone. So this sacrament most awesome let us venerate bowed down. Let the olden Law's observance yield to new and perfect rites. Let our faith supply completely where our senses cannot cope. To the Father, to the Son be jubilation, shouts of praise, honor to our mighty Savior, acclamations, endless thanks. To the Spirit from both flowing be like honor without end.

Qui vivis et regnas cum Deo patre in unitate spiritus sancti Deus per omnia saecula saeculorum. Amen.	God, in this wonderful sacrament you left us a memorial of your Passion. Enable us, we ask, so to venerate the sacred mysteries of your Body and Blood, that we may always fell the fruit of your redemption in us. You live and reign with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, forever and ever. Amen.
