Edition notes: The vocal bass part is figured in the source: this figuring has been omitted from the present edition to facilitate the underlaying of the text. The first verse only of the text is given in the source: subsequent verses have been added editorially, on the basis of the title 'Psalm 32nd. 1st 7th 10th & 11th Verses' in the source.
Small grace notes printed in the source have been written out in full-sized notes in this edition.
The counter (alto) part from beat 3 of bar 15 to beat 2 of bar 19 in this edition is printed in small notes on the treble stave in the source, and has been separated out editorially: this part may be sung by altos or divisi sopranos.
