- Edition notes: Source - Piae Cantiones, where the refrain melody is in the Tenor (see the Lutheran hymn 'Danket dem herren'). The alto second syllable of 'virginae' is a tone lower in the source (Piae Cantiones ed. Woodward)and I suspect it was ficta practice to flatten these as in the second edition - Rostock 1625). Piae Cantiones does not provide a melody for the verses, the present one is as recorded by Steeleye Span. In the spirit of this oral tradition this well-known version has been adapted for SAATTBB
