Dear Martyn, I've found it. The resolution isn't brilliant, but it's better than nothing. It's at

For those who can't wait, there was a digital download available on the internet a couple of years ago and for the most part pretty readable. I printed off a couple of pages to replace some of my old, very poor, copy but recall that all pages seemed to be there. It may still be out there but unfortunately I forgot to note the source/address - perhaps others know? Of course the problem with it is that there are none of the excellent scholarly notes, concordances etc we have from you and collegues in the Society. So I look forward to this edition.

I would hesitate to predict a completion date - as with all Lute Society publications the preparation is carried out by dedicated individuals giving their time to the work involved, and sometimes there are unexpected interruptions. But it is definitely the next planned Lute Society facsimile, and a publication date within the next year seems entirely possible at the moment. When to publish it after the preparation is complete will be a committee decision, and as has already been said, the Lute Society's ability to produce new facsimilies does depend on support for the existing publications. It's good to see Robert Spencer's name mentioned in the context of the Cherbury manuscript. His vision of making lute manuscripts available in facsimile is still a major inspiration for the Lute Society's work in that field. We don't have specific plans beyond Cherbury, but I very much hope that the series will be able to continue, ideally until every English lute manuscript is in print. That will take some time, but it's good to hold onto the vision.....

Dd 2.11 isn't listed yet: [4]http://www.lutesoc.co.uk/pages/catalogue Some of us have had to wait for 30 years for the Lord Herbert facsimile. Bob Spencer had it at the top of his list, but was unsuccessful in getting the library to release it for a facsimile. It would be at the top of my list, too. It was quite a frustrating experience for him. He would mutter, "We'll just have to wait until he [the librarian] retires."
