First published: unknown. Completeness: unknown.Measures 1–9 exchange curling sixteenth-note figures over sustained harmonies, expanding into thirty-second-note runs. Measures 10–24 introduce a contrasting imitative passage in longer notes, gradually filling out the texture with suspensions and moving inner voices. Measures 25–64 bring the running figures back into the contrapuntal texture, combining them with slower lines and passing them between registers. Measures 65–70 sustain the bass beneath the final exchanges and close in E-flat major.
