Comments:Notated from tablature, itself transcribed by Donald Sauter, at http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/Lobby/7049/
I have included a version of the tablature, not completly following Mr. Sauter's rules. To quote from Mr. Sauter (and the comments in the file)
"Uses Vihuela tuning, G c f a d' g', as at the time this was written there were no standard pitches the intervals can be obtained on a guitar by tuning the 3rd string down a half step, to f-#."
The comment in the score at measure 164 is from the original tablature, and reads, in Spanish "Desde aquí hasta acerca del final hay algunas falsas; tañiendos bien no parecen mal."
