Well I've uploaded my transcription to IMSLP now, so after 306 years
there is a LilyPond typeset of it available. It took me nearly two hours
to input via Denemo, being so indistinct, but didn't call for any tweaks
beyond the clash between the slur and the accidental which you can see
in the incipit. (For some reason the incipit doesn't obey the tweak ...)
