The first item is the Treble of a Latin litany, with the Bass part in F-Pn Rés. B.1852 (another copy of the printed processional), reconstructed by Jason Smart for EECM (see: http://www.eecm.ac.uk/eecmresources/twotudorlitanies/latinlitany/Anon%20-%20Litany%20(Lambeth-Paris).pdf) The second and fourth items in this Lambeth source are not contained in the Paris source. The third item is common to both sources: 'Kyrie eleison. Christe eleison. Christe audi nos' is the text in both. The fifth item is also common to both: a Bass part of 'Salve festa dies'. The Paris copy is more complete, and both sources have some altered/added underlay. Magnus Williamson's 2016 article on the Tallis Litany + O sacrum convivium is pertinent.
