There are 2 exquisite settings of "An Hymn to God the Father" ("Willst
   thou forgive that sin..."), one by Hilton (perhaps commissioned by
   Donne himself?) and another by Pelham Humfrey. Nigel North and Paul
   Hillier have recorded the Hilton along with some other Donne settings
   on "The Rags of Time".
