medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Greetings all,

A student is trying to find the following:

'an antiphony for churches dedicated to St. Vaast or St. Medard: Summa pia gratia nostra conservando corpora et cutodita, de gente fera Normannica nos libera, quae nostra vastat, Deus, regna,"Our supreme and holy Grace, protecting us and ours, deliver us, God, from the savage race of Northmen which lays waste our realms"' The reference is to Magnús Magnússon, Vikings, 1980 p. 61

This is apparently the closest we get to the apocryphal prayer (unles one of you can find it!)

A furore Normannorum libera nos, Domine.

Now if I try and google any of the above, I just get tons of viking-related pages. I´m wondering if there is an on-line source that is available for free in which I could search the phrases?

All the best,

Meg
