1. Why both? If I remember correctly, it's because they were originally written (say) in soprano clef, which has been updated to (in this case) treble clef.
2. I'd have to read it in context, but the pupil (Josephus?) has obviously used notes not from the correct mode, in which the cantus firmus is written, and the counterpoint should be in.
