Notes:

note: FallowsCat, 600 (a4 in R2356); CattinCI, 434-5. Ed. LuisiLG, ii, 194-221 (settings from Ven, BU, Pal472, Panc27, Grey, P676, M112bis, PetL/i, Rz1563); Diederichs, 330-3, 355-7. See also Jaenecke, 136-42 (5 versions edited, with inaccuracies). Rz1563 concordances are Ven, Panc27, & Grey; see Mancuso, 421-6. The intended cc. text was apparently the older Latin poem, which is formally compatible with the laude to which it is linked (and transmitted in Gall2, as well), rather than Giustinian’s vernacular ‘Verbum caro factum est/de Maria’ (2/3:7/8 [xy AAx BBx...). The ‘Verbum caro’ in R2356 was copied at the end of the manuscript, and appears to be later addition. It bears no resemblance to any of the other extant settings. The setting most likely known in 15th-early 16thc. Florence came from northern Italy; among the many versions found in north Italian sources may be discerned a primary setting consisting of the popular ‘In hoc anni circulo’ tune in the tenor, with a cantus melody that is recognizable but extremely varied among these sources (see versions in Ven, BU, Panc27, and BNF, Magl. XIX.112b, all edited in LuisiLG, ii, nos. 42-3, 46, 48, & 53). Its clear derivation from the unwritten tradition would make it a likely candidate for use in the cc. tradition.
