Textual repetitions abound in verses of the Seven Penitential Psalms of Lassus and this research attempts to discover their function. A total of one hundred and thirty-two verses were analyzed. The results of this investigation exhibit numerous mathematical figures underlying the entire work's structure, and the influence of repetitions is conspicuous in each figure's organization. Moreover, this study shows, in a smaller measure, the mutual influence between form and text expression. A detailed method of calculation is also provided which may eventually be applied to other works of the repertoire of the sixteenth century.
