Hello David,

Niso was sometimes spelled Neso. She was a seanymph and islandgoddess.
she was one of the 50 daughters out of Nereus and Doris.

Maybe this helps.

Cheers!

To the collected wisdom. I'm translating some lute songs and came up
with two minor questions.

From 'Sweet Kate' by Robert Jones (1609)

'Te hee hee'

Like ho ho ho/LOL/LOLFTOL, or is there more to it?


From 'Every Bush' by Michael Cavendish (1598)

Who is 'Niso'?

Just a nymph, her name looks like one of the nymphs that raised
Dionysus, but there might be more to her. Some reference I should know
about?

Thanks in advance.

David
