This MEI file is a mechanical conversion of Monique Rio's edition (St Cecilia Press, https://stcpress.org), which is licensed CC BY 4.0 according to the publisher's statement and the edition's own score footer. Because the licence badge on the publisher's page links to CC BY-SA 4.0, the conversion is released under CC BY-SA 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/), which satisfies either reading. Attribution: edition by Monique Rio, St Cecilia Press; MEI conversion by Motetus (AEM Ventures SRL). Changes: converted from LilyPond to MEI 5.1; see the encodingDesc and revisionDesc.

The LilyPond source is read by a strict reader for the subset of LilyPond used by the edition (relative pitches, durations, bar checks, editorial accidentals marked with the edition's \ficta command, a music variable used twice, lyrics with hyphens, extenders and skips). Accidentals are written where LilyPond's default accidental rule prints them; every altered note also carries its sounding accidental (@accid.ges). Lyrics are attached to notes with LilyPond's \lyricsto rules. Only the first, untransposed \book of the score template is converted. Any construct outside the subset stops the conversion. No music was entered or corrected by hand.
All notes, rests and syllables come from the source edition's LilyPond file at the pinned commit, converted mechanically. Nothing was transcribed from the manuscript for this encoding.
Pitch, onset and duration of every note and the placement of every syllable were checked automatically against the edition's own MIDI file at written pitch (checks/midi-compare.json).
Accidentals: written accidentals are encoded where LilyPond's default accidental rule prints them in the edition; sounding alterations are given in @accid.ges on every other altered note. Accidentals the edition marks with its \ficta command (printed above the note) are encoded as editorial accidentals (accid with func='edit', place='above').
Each voice carries its own text as verse 1 of its staff, as in the edition; the lowest voice is texted only with its incipit 'Super te', as in the edition. Lyrics, punctuation and spelling are copied from the edition.
The lowest voice states its tenor melody twice; the edition writes it once as a music variable and uses it twice, and the encoding follows it measure by measure.
The edition's transposed version (c to d, top voice in treble clef) is not encoded; the encoding follows the edition at written pitch with its clefs (G_8 in all voices).
The edition switches automatic beaming off and writes no beams; none are encoded. Layout instructions of the edition (page size, staff size, system spacing) and its ambitus signs at the start of each staff are not encoded.
Converted mechanically from the LilyPond source of Monique Rio's edition (St Cecilia Press, commit dcbcfbe) with tools/stcpress.py 1.0.0. No note, rest or syllable was added, removed or corrected by hand.
