Navigation etc.

Cetra (it.) = cittern, not zither (as Sibley had it). The range and keys used in this publication support this, and the note on fingering at the bottom of p.2 of the Cetra part (whereas a zither is not fretted, but uses open strings). The cittern here (also known as the English Guitar, and related to the later confusingly-named Waldzither and the Portuguese Fado cittern/guitar) is not quite the same as the Renaissance cittern, which uses a different tuning.
