- Edition notes: Musica ficta clearly indicated (probably more generous than necessary or advisable). The Canon (Quintus) on the Superius is pitched a diatonic step below the Superius. With these two voices and the Contratenor frequently overlapping in range, this creates a very rich texture.
- Original key edition, but with the Canon part up an octave

- Edition notes: based on a transcription of the partbooks by Klaas Spijker; transcription in modern clefs. No further editorial marks... Update of MIDI and PDF 11-01-2006 to include the 5th voice, which is a canon of the superius. Explanation: see below.

Description: This is five-voiced setting with four parts, the superius being a canon. Same melody is used as in the original setting of Claudin De Sermisy. The canon has to start and stop at the indicated place, only a 'secunde' lower... (at C instead of D) without transpositon of course, which results in perfect harmony but an 'estrangement' of the melody, just as Crecquillons tip suggested: Chanter vous fault estrangement: You have to sing strangely.

French text
(modernized French)
D'où vient cela, Belle, je vous supplie
Que plus à moi ne vous recommandez ?
Toujours serai de tristesse rempli
Jusques à tant qu'au vrai le me mandez.
Je crois que plus d'Ami ne demandez,
Ou mauvais bruit de moi on vous révèle,
Ou votre cœur a fait amour nouvelle.
