Description: A collection of 21 songs in one, two and four parts, with lute and viol parts.
Notes: The lute parts of this book and of The Muses Gardin for Delights are, in places, crude and dissonant. It has been suggested that, in these cases, Jones is only responsible for the melody and bass lines, but there is little external evidence to support this.
