Notes

With no extant manuscript of this cantata available and with no text appearing in surviving copies, there is uncertainty regarding text. The first text included here is suggested as a possible option by the editor in the BGA (Bach Gesellschaft Ausgabe). The second text is suggested by the editors of the NBA (Neue Bach Ausgabe).
