How to interpret and engrave these measures?

I'm working on engraving Cantate Domino composed by Adam Gumpelzhaimer. I am having difficulty understanding and engraving the final two measures, pictured below.
What steps should I follow to engrave the pictured measures, in particular the measure with 2 above it.

Voices are used when the rhythms differ, as in your example. Voice 1 is blue when selected, and Voice 2 is green. Typically you use Voice 1 for stem-up notes and Voice 2 for stem-down notes.
