'''Description:''' Reconstructed by David Allinson from the Batten organ book (Tenbury Wells collection held in the Oxford Bodleian Library).  The music survives uniquely in this source, where it is untexted and incomplete, though there are a few textual cues and verse sections are marked (though it is not specified which voices are involved). In the score, small notes are editorial.
