Thank you Arthur and Sean for your kindness but it won't be necessary to bother you as Ron Andrico and Donna Curry have kindly supplied the Van Wilder's song I was after. In fact, I needed this version to understand the duet by Marchant mentioned by Ward (alas, no, I haven't got this volume...yet !). The surviving piece It is a first lute part of a duet (Edinburgh University Library, Dc. 5.125, ff. 77v - 78) and David Humphries proposed a reconstruction of the missing part, which was published by the English Lute Society. This very nice duet is part of a programme we are to give in concert next Sunday in Angoulême, near Cognac (I suppose the latter name will be more evocative;-).
Thank you for your kind help and best wishes, Jean-Marie > >Can't help you with the chanson.
