- Edition notes: Transcribed from the "Musica Divina di XIX autori illustri a IIII. V. VI et VII voci, nuovamente raccolta da Pietro Phalesio et data in luce in Anversa - 1588". The keys, time signatures, notes' values and accidentals are as in the original print. The C clefs are transposed to the G clef and to the modern Tenor clef. At the end of the Tenore part the couple of black notes, a semibrevis ligata plus a minima, should be performed as a dotted minima plus a semiminima.
