Editor: Andreas Stenberg (submitted 2024-04-08).   Score information: A4, 8 pages, 153 kB   Copyright: CPDL

Edition notes: A double edition. The two voices of the print (Prima Vox & Altera Vox) are given as in the source in mensural notation as is the schlüssel for the four-part canon of the main voices. The resolution is given as a semi-diplomatic score: modern clefs and ficta added but original key and note-values.
