Edition notes: A semi-diplomatic edition (Clefs of the singing-voices modernised). The edition contains a full score, Violin- and Cello-parts and a vocal score. The original autograph score is a compositional fair copy and the parts for the instrumentalists and singers would have been extrapolated from it. Thus the lyrics are not always provided in both singing voices when the text is. Instances, where the text is interpolated in one voice from the text of the other, are in cursive. Text sections in are repetitions of words indicated by % in the source.
