Description: Figured bass unclear in places owing to poor reproduction. Score is followed by the following comment from the composer: "Estas composiciones necesitan, para su acierto, que la musica sea muy pausada, y para su execución, de un acompañamiento, que tenga gran cuerpo para el total abrigo de las voces, y si estas son sencillas se percibirá mejor la idea que no con el coro de capilla donde a lo menos son duplicadas las partes, con que se confunden las de los dos coros."
