Edition notes: Only the first verse of the text is given in the source: subsequent verses have here been added editorially. In addition to the figured bass in the source, which is reproduced here, the notes sung by the alto part in bars 8-9 are shown in the source in small notes on the Air staff, to encourage their use in keyboard accompaniment of the piece: these have been omitted from the present edition.
