"A textless canon on the opening folio of Petrucci's Motetti A (1502). Only two parts are written out, with the inscription ''Canon. Misericordia & Veritas obviaverunt sibi'' above the upper part, and ''Canon. Justitia & Pax osculatae sunt'' above the lower part, which is a clue that the parts should be sung in retrograde with each other."
