This may be the song mentioned in the diary of Fray Pedro Font on Tuesday, October 24, 1775 when he describes the burial of the woman who died in childbirth. He writes, "We set out from La Canoa and halted at Punta de los Llanos... On the way the people and I went saying the Rosary for the deceased, and I finished by singing the Salve of the Virgin of Los Dolores..."
