Edition notes: The given text is contradictory, hence a decision had to be made:
The text is not reliable, the main problem being the word "mengiere" or "muger". "muger" - which is the ancient spelling of "mujer" i. e. woman, wife - is used consequently up to the 24th editionn in the Superius, whereas "mengiere" is used just as consequently in the other voices. Now for "mengiere" no reference could be found - except ancient French for manger, perhaps meaning dish - , hence it was assumed to be a misreading of "mugiere"(spelled here "mujere") - a form not testified, but fitting the music. "Animalida" could be meaning animalada : Eselei - folly.
