Misc. Notes Intabulation in french Lute-tablature for Soprano, Bariton and 2 g-Lutes (2nd lute 10 chors). Transposed down a second. (The base Continuo realization is by W.F.Long) If performed I would look forward about a small reference to my efforts.
Originally from the ode Of old when heroes thought it base, there is apparently also a version in Orpheus Britannicus.
