Publication date appears on title page in ornamental cartouche above imprint. Three partbooks, each with separate title page identical to main title page. Pages marked and stained. Reproduction of the original in the British Library. Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford. Re-processed by University of Nebraska-Lincoln and Northwestern, with changes to facilitate morpho-syntactic tagging. Gap elements of known extent have been transformed into placeholder characters or elements to simplify the filling in of gaps by user contributors. EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO. EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org). The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source. Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data. Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so. Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor. The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines. Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).

COurteous Gentlemen , these Canzonets of mine being ended , according as my abilitie therein and the leisure allotted mee from other necessary imployments would permit , as now , so long since willingly would they haue offered themselues vnto you to bee patronized of you , had not the manifold rubs which befell them in their way stayed them hetherto ; better now then neuer . The action it selfe of impropriating the first fruits of your protection may perhaps at the first blush seeme to bee of great boldnesse , but to an indifferent censurer vpon mature deliberation , the trespasse of it will easily appeare to bee but Ueniall if any . For what Aduocate is there ( though but tasted of the rudiments of Law ) who could not pleade a reasonable excuse for it , if hee were but informed of your industrious trauailing in the liberall Sciences ( whereof Musicke is one ) with such willingnesse of minde and delight of heart and with such an ingenious disposition of liking and louing all whose footsteps doe tend the same way with you . And yet that is not all . For these Sonnets of mine , if you mark them well , do seeme to smile vpon you , as challenging some former familier acquaintance with you . And I dare say for them , that if they knew how , they would curteously salute you , and merily relate what a solace their company was once to you , when as being but weake ones I nursed them amongst you . But if all this were not , yet your louing affections and bountifull kindnesse , which both your worshipfull Parents and your selues , haue from time to time inlarged toward mee , might well enough animate me in crauing your fauourable protection , for whom can a man better trust to , then those of whom he hath had former tryall . Accept therefore I pray you , of these first fruits of my indeuours , accounting it no impeachment to any of you , that so small a thing is made common to all of you , you are I trust children of the most High , and therefore tyed together by the band of the Spirit , you are all Brethren of the same Parents , and therefore tied together by the band of Nature : your education formerly hath beene for the most part together , and your place of residence is now in one and the same Vniuersitie , as in a Nursery , and in one and the same place of that Nursery , and therefore you are tyed together by the band of Society : farre be it from me , that I should seeme to go about to separate where they are so worthily knit together . The Lord knit you still surer and surer in loue towards his Maiestie , and one towards another , that you may so liue together on earth , as that one day you may be crowned together with glory in heauen .

CANZONETS TO THREE VOYCES NEWLY COMPOSED BY HENRY YOVLL PRACTICIONER IN THE ART OF MVSICKE . 1608 IN LONDON PRINTED BY THOMAS ESTE , the assigne of William Barley . ☞ BASSVS . ☜ To the vertuous Gentlemen Mr. Nicholas Bacon , Mr. Phillip Bacon , Mr. Nathaniell Bacon , and Mr. Lionell Bacon , Sonnes to the Worshipfull Mr. Edward Bacon Esquire , Henry You ll wisheth all happinesse both heere and heereafter . COurteous Gentlemen , these Canzonets of mine being ended , according as my abilitie therein and the leisure allotted mee from other necessary imployments would permit , as now , so long since willingly would they haue offered themselues vnto you to bee patronized of you , had not the manifold rubs which befell them in their way stayed them hetherto ; better now then neuer . The action it selfe of impropriating the first fruits of your protection may perhaps at the first blush seeme to bee of great boldnesse , but to an indifferent censurer vpon mature deliberation , the trespasse of it will easily appeare to bee but Ueniall if any . For what Aduocate is there ( though but tasted of the rudiments of Law ) who could not pleade a reasonable excuse for it , if hee were but informed of your industrious trauailing in the liberall Sciences ( whereof Musicke is one ) with such willingnesse of minde and delight of heart and with such an ingenious disposition of liking and louing all whose footsteps doe tend the same way with you . And yet that is not all . For these Sonnets of mine , if you mark them well , do seeme to smile vpon you , as challenging some former familier acquaintance with you . And I dare say for them , that if they knew how , they would curteously salute you , and merily relate what a solace their company was once to you , when as being but weake ones I nursed them amongst you . ` But if all this were not , yet your louing affections and bountifull kindnesse , which both your worshipfull Parents and your selues , haue from time to time inlarged toward mee , might well enough animate me in crauing your fauourable protection , for whom can a man better trust to , then those of whom he hath had former tryall . Accept therefore I pray you , of these first fruits of my indeuours , accounting it no impeachment to any of you , that so small a thing is made common to all of you , you are I trust children of the most High , and therefore tyed together by the band of the Spirit , you are all Brethren of the same Parents , and therefore tied together by the band of Nature : your education formerly hath beene for the most part together , and your place of residence is now in one and the same Vniuersitie , as in a Nursery , and in one and the same place of that Nursery , and therefore you are tyed together by the band of Society : farre be it from me , that I should seeme to go about to separate where they are so worthily knit together . The Lord knit you still surer and surer in loue towards his Maiestie , and one towards another , that you may so liue together on earth , as that one day you may be crowned together with glory in heauen . Yours in all duetie to his power Henry You ll . A TABLE OF ALL THE CAN ZONETS contained in this Booke . EAch day of thine . I. Come Loue le ts walke . First part . II. In yonder dale . Second part .
