Dear Ed,

I don't recall a "Une jeune Fillette" by Dowland.  There is one by Vallet,
so it may be from the CNRS edition.  Their ciphers are similar to the ones
in Poulton's edition.  Unusual are the tie-like lines in the tabkature that
begin in measure 17.  That is in a line that begins with measure 15.

If your tablature agrees, that is from the CNRS Vallet edition, pages
96-105.  There is an indiction that it is "� 9" (9 course lute).

By the way, although Vallet was most likely born in France, the repertory
in his books is thoroughly Dutch.

I've been looking at variations on Une Jeune Fillette. The tab looks  like
it had been cut up, pasted together and then photocopied in  order to
eliminate a notation transcription and  fit the tab onto two  pages. The
typesetting looks like the Poulton book. I'm sure I got  this from my old
roomate who often pasted things up like that. It was  in my Dowland folder.
Can anyone furnish me with information on it's  provenance? Stylistically,
it sounds so much like Vallet to me. Is it  sure this is Dowland? TIA
