I have the unfingered sheet music for this piece, but being a neophyte it would take hours to figure out good fingerings.  Is there a fingered copy available? Or, would a more advanced player be willing to write in a complete set of fingerings for a fee? It is # II in this volume: https://s9.imslp.org/files/imglnks/usimg/a/a6/IMSLP17610-Keyboard_Works_V.pdf
