 "Infelix ego" was widely set by musicians.At first, it was alluded to secretly, rather than being directly set to music.Josquin des Prez's famous setting of the "Miserere", written in Ferrara around 1503-1504, is an example of this, with its structure mirroring Savonarola's meditation, imitating its simplicity and phrasing, and including a refrain of "Miserere mei deus", after each verse, just as in Savonarola's meditation.
