"Manchicourt employs an ingenious canon in the two Superius parts: the direction in the source ''"Sans souspirer ne chantez poinctz"'' (lit. "without breathing, don’t sing dots") requires the ''comes'' (or ‘follower’) voice to omit minim rests and remove the dot from any dotted notes, the result being that the ''comes'' starts four semibreves later but ends the ''prima pars'' three-and-a-half semibreves earlier than the ''dux'' (and in the ''secunda pars'', five and four semibreves respectively)."
