The keys, notes’ values, accidentals and colourings are as in the manuscript, the coloured notes under the square slur are in “proportio sesquialtera”. 3 vs. The time signature is missing in all the voices, the “tempus perfectum” has been assumed from the context. In the “perfaulxbourdon” section the Contra is derived from the Superius a fourth below. The notes' values within the "ligaturæ" are as follows. the left upstemmed notes are semibreves - the unstemmed notes are breves – the right downstemmed note is a longa.
