The Bordesholm Marienklage is a late (1475-6) medieval planctus of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a form of Passion play in the vernacular, half-sung, half-spoken, with a few quotes from Latin liturgical pieces interspersed. The last moments of the life of Jesus dying on the Cross unfold before the eyes of a few bystanders, chief among them Mary and the beloved disciple, John. Mary's lament, which begins with the Lauds antiphon Anxiatus est in me is the focus of the whole exercise.
