Edition notes: The first verse of the text is underlaid under the alto part in the source, and has been added to the other three parts editorially, on the basis of the slurring (which is given in the source). The three subsequent verses given here are printed after the music for this tune in the source, numbered 2, 4 and 5, and have here been underlaid editorially. The word on beats 1-2 of bar 11 in verse 1, given here as 'shew'st', is given in the source as 'shews'.
