- *12 Sumer is icumen in
- The first versions (v0.0.1) contain two errors in the latin text as follows.
- Bar 1: Perpice (erratum) -> Perspice
- Bar 11: No parcens (erratum) -> Non parcens
I would like to thank John Briggs who pointed out these errors.
The version 0.1.0 also contains errors.
Notes in bars 13-14 were notated one degree higher.
I would like to thank D.G. who pointed out these errors.

Remarks
- All the transcriptions and other files are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License.
- I use MusiXTeX + PMX + M-Tx to make transcriptions.
- The item 'TeX' in the table indicates the source file of MusiXTeX.
To compile the source, you need PMX and musixlyr macro.
- The item 'PS' in the table indicates the PostScript file.
To see or print out the PostScript files, you need, for instance, Ghostscript or Ghostviewer.
See the following:
- The item 'PDF' in the table indicates the Adobe PDF (Portable Document Format) file.
- The proofreading of transcriptions whose version numbers are less than 1.0 or 1.0.0 has not been done sufficiently.
Therefore they would contain errors.
I would be very appreciated if you informed me about them.
