Despite Galilei's claims to the contrary, there are a few printers mistakes too 
and there is doubtlessly an element of improvisation in the way the 
introductory anacruses should be played anyway (as perhaps indicated, for 
example, by the occasional long note values).

P.S.: I still have a number of copies of the Minkoff facsimile I anyone is

This is an excellent edition.

The music is really good - not exactly easy, though :)

The preface - yes a preface in a Minkoff edition - is fabulous. There are even 
corrections to the music.

The tablature is crystal clear.

Possibly the best Minkoff facsimile of lute music.

Rainer

PS
You definitely need an 10c instrument for Galilei's music.

The Minkoff facsimile provides an English translation. Here is an extract:
'... since my sonatas might offer some difficulty to... players not yet very 
experienced in this art... these people must be satisfied with playing simply 
the first and second part of the Correnti and Volte, which they may repeat
