An extremely interesting and curious book, of great rarity. Its value and interest lie not so much in the theoretical portion, which was an unsuccessful attempt to revive an obsolete and intricate method, as in the collection of twenty songs, with the music, which occupy the latter half of the volume. They comprise compositions by John Bennet, one of the best composers of madrigals of the Elizabethan

period, Ravenscroft himself, and Edward Peirs (or Pearce). Eight
were reprinted by the Roxburghe Club in "Selections from the Works
of Thomas Ravenscroft," 1822. Commendatory verses by Thomas
Campion, John Dowland, John Davies of Hereford and others, are
prefixed.
