In my 1997 printing of the paperback, the missing matter here is at the top of p. xiv:
"poems which appear in identical sequence in other manuscripts. Music codices may have been another possible quarry.[3]" [followed by a paragraph break]
" Some blocks which appear toward the end of the series of love lyrics" [followed by the text as you give it, starting with "consist of"].

Again the missing matter starts at the top of the following page [xv], this time beginning a new paragraph:
" The associated myth of the Goliards, the imaginary _Ordo Vagantum_ founded by a legendary Golias with its headquarters in France and its own constitution, must likewise be disregarded when we scrutinize these love" [followed by "lyrics. Golias originates..."].
