Summary
The Paris and Manchester manuscripts come si deve eseguire (1798)
The Manchester manuscript (Man) is virtually identical to P, as is the printed version of 1838 (variants are noted). All three also include the last verse a9, with two interesting dynamics for the final word vitulos: p at vi- and f at -tu-, the better perhaps to prepare the long decrescendo on the final chord described by Adami and Burney.
