The parallel verses of Saint Francis's poem inspired from Thomas a series of variations on what could be called a Theme of Praise, a declamatory melodic idea which emphasizes fourths and fifths. After the initial presentation of the theme. "All praise to you, my Lord". , the speaker moves from extolling sun and moon to praising each of the four elements of the medieval world. wind, water, earth, fire. taking in all of creation.

The vocal line here descends into its lowest register, accompanied by the simplest organ texture, before rising up again in fountains of praise.
