Notes: | Note by John Stevens: From a MS. roll of carols, copied out in the early 15th century and now in the Library of Trinity College, Cambridge; printed by kind permission. The carol begins and ends with the chorus (the alto part is editorial and may be omitted at will); the verses are for soloists. Small accidentals in the chorus are absent from the MS. and may be ignored if you wish. The tenor has the tune throughout, and the other voices should be subordinate. The music was intended to be sung unaccompanied. |
