Mus. 1154(L)

Manuscript. 'A shepherd charmd with Evry Grace' for soprano and continuo, copied in score by Richard Goodson Sr; unattributed, but evidently Goodson's autograph composing score. English, late 17th century. For a separate continuo part of this song, also copied by Goodson Sr, see Mus. 1142a (ff. 32-3).

Upright format, 320 x 205 mm. Unused staves on f. 1r. Pasted into a modern card folder, and mounted impermanently on a cord within an early 20th-century folder of stiff card and vellum containing all 13 sections of Mus. 1154.

Provenance unknown. Formerly shelved within the Portfolios at position I.2.δ (the reference 'I.2.δ' is written in red crayon on f. 1v). In Havergal Summary, the contents of that portfolio are described only in summary as '7 Latin motetts; 5 Italian cantatas, & 2 fragments; & 8 Songs & Duets &c: Anon: MS.'
