Isabella Leonarda (6 September 1620 – 25 February 1704) was an Italian composer and Ursuline nun.
Practice Rumination
Isabella Leonarda, who was Ursuline,
Resided in a convent all her days.
Which meant she had a place to hold rehearsal in,
With a minimum of hassles and delays.
Rehearsing the motets that she had written,
She found it was a perk that can’t be priced
To have a spacious choir loft to sit it
While singing with her fellow brides of Christ.
