Edition notes: Only the first verse of the text is given in the source: three subsequent verses have been added editorially. The order of parts in the source is Tenor - [Alto] - Air - [Bass], with the alto part printed in the treble clef an octave above sounding pitch. The soprano A on the beat 1 of bar 16 is printed as a small grace note quaver in the source (slurred to the following G which is printed as a full-sized crotchet) and has been written out editorially. The first-time bar has been added editorially to accommodate the repeat shown in the source.
