The time signatures, the notes' values and the colourings are as in the manuscript, the perfect notes and rests are dotted. The coloured notes in the “tempus imperfectum” and the sections beginning with the number “3” are in “proportio sesquialtera” (3 vs. 2), the coloured notes in the “tempus perfectum” are “hemiolæ”.

Latin text

Homo quidam fecit cenam magnam,
et misit servum suum hora cenae
dicere invitatis ut venirent
quia parata sunt

(tropus)
omnibus firmiter credentibus
cibaria vite conferencia
angelica celicaque gaudia

omnia
venite, comedite panem meum,
et bibite vinum quod miscui vobis.
Gloria Patri et Filio et Spiritui Sancto.
