:'''Edition notes:''' This is laid out for high tenors on the alto parts and can be transposed down a semitone or tone. The treble part is unusually low, perhaps responding to the sombre text. If transposed down, the tenor part is for a bass. This gives a scoring of TrMAABB. One of White's settings of Domine Quis Habitabit is for MMAABB, similarly omitting the tenor voice.
:'''Edition notes:''' The outer clefs are C1 and C5, which imply downward transposition, of a tone in this case.

Edition notes: The outer clefs are C1 and C5, which imply downward transposition, of a tone in this case. Then the upward transposition of a tone due to the pitch change leaves us where we were, but better informed. The alto parts are laid out for high tenors. The treble part is unusually low, perhaps responding to the sombre text. If transposed down, the tenor part is for a bass.
The tenor part has been lost except for two fragments in Paston sources. The rest has been reconstructed.
There is a mean gymell at Omnis Populus. Editorial accidentals are marked with a small circle.
