Edition notes: Note values halved, written pitch retained. Underlay in the source material denoted by ij has been italicised, in case one might interpret the underlay differently.

The source material in the Tenor II Cantus part exceeds all other parts by the length of a minim. The lower voices' phrase ending together in bar 81 and not harmonically clashing with the Cantus parts that follow suggests the error lies in bar 80. As such, "-tes" in bar 80 has been shortened to crotchet, and the following (crotchet) rest has been removed.
