Notes

Aka Cockleshells..Translates roughly as "Tickle On The Tum", if you get my meaning. I considered re-beaming to conform with modern expectations, as it would not require altering the tune in any way, only it's graphic presentation. However, the original beaming, as here given, is graphic and very suggestive of performance practice..CGP
