Well, the Rebel is as late as 1712, and does have multi-measure rests (it's printed as separate parts) https://imslp.org/wiki/Special:ImagefromIndex/345846 I'm not sure what period the originator of this query was interested in - very likely earlier, this print using moveable type was old-fashioned at the time. But I thought it might illustrate LilyPond's flexibility to generate both a modern and a (somewhat) early version from the same Denemo input. I think it is quite impressive, but there are some style clashes in there.
