Contents:

Songs of three voices: Fly love aloft to heaven

Away, thou shalt not love me

Ay me, can every rumour?

Weep O mine eyes

Dear pity, how, ah how?

Ye restless thoughts.

Songs of four voices: What needeth all this travail?

O fools can you not see?

Alas, what hope of speeding?

Lady, when I behold

Thus saith my Cloris bright

Adieu sweet Amarillis.

Songs of five voices: Die hapless man

I fall, O stay me

And though my love abounding

I always beg

Thus love commands

Lady, your words do spite me

Alas, what a wretched life

Unkind, O stay thy flying

I sung sometimes my thoughts

Flora gave me fairest flowers.

Songs of six voices: Sweet love, if thou wilt gain

When shall my wretched life?

Of joys and pleasing pains

My throat is sore

Cruel behold my heavy ending

Thou art but young thou sayest

Why dost thou shoot?

A madrigal from the "Triumphs of Oriana": The lady Oriana.

Two motets from Leighton's "Tears and lamentations": I am quite tired with my groans

O God the rock of my whole strength.

Notes:

With piano reduction.
