In the LSA page http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~lsa/associated/Galilei/ they have lots of information of Il Fronimo! There is for ex. a spreadsheet "For a clearer presentation of the concordances among the two publications of Fronimo and the various secondary sources, we provide a cross-index in the form of an Excel spreadsheet. (49.5 KB)" http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~lsa/associated/Galilei/MusicIndex.xls It lists and compares the pieces in the 1568 and 1584 versions of Il Fronimo. There you can find that "Ancor che col partir" is on page 66 of the 1568 edition (the Fantasia on "Ancoe" is on page 94). And there are many pieces that are only in one of the editions. best, Arto To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
