Editor: Christopher Braginetz (submitted 1999-10-25).   Score information: Letter, 3 pages, 160 kB   Copyright: CPDL

Edition notes: A copy of the edition by E. H. Fellowes published by OUP in 1935 and included in OUP's A Sixteenth-Century Anthem Book (1960). The Soprano part, which is now missing, was recomposed by Fellowes. Fellowes chose to ignore the original music for verse 3 (i.e. from 'O Father, through thy blessed Son' onwwards), preferring instead to repeat the music of verse 2. A revised edition, re-transcribed from the original source and using all the original music, was published by OUP in 1991.
