Description: From "A Collection of Glees and Catches", London, c.1775 N.B. "Breathe soft ye winds" is often but erroneously attributed to Stephen Paxton, William's brother, also a 'cellist and writer of glees. The source of the confusion arises from the inclusion of six of William's glees in "A collection of glees and catches", the remainder (and sizeable majority) of which is devoted to Stephen's compositions.
