Navigation etc.
Only known in an English "adaptation" by Dudley Buck the extent of which is unspecified- he may even have set a work by Anzoletti to different words as well as changing the instrumentation and language, for example, which would make this a not-rare, especially pre-20th-century, adaptation with changed lyrics by one composer of a work by another
Based at least on the opening piano prelude and the vocal opening as well, perhaps rather freely adapted from (among other things?) a Salve Regina in E major (published in 1853 by Glöggl of Wien and perhaps ca.1845 by Ricordi judging by the plate #) by Anzoletti. (Either that, or Anzoletti was quoting his own Salve Regina in another work...- or Buck was responsible for this version, which seems most likely) - Schissel (Is this Psalm 63 n or 63 vulgate/64 n?)
