Mus. 1205(A)

Manuscript. [Henry Cooke], 'Sleep downy sleep', copied in score by Richard Goodson Sr; English, late 17th century. At the head of the score (f. 1v), Goodson has written: 'I desire you to set the like figures in the new Bass you intend to make, as are in former'. At the end of the score, the name 'Mr Pinnell' has been added in an unidentified hand.

Upright format, 373 x 245 mm. Bifolio, formerly folded horizontally. Unused staves on ff. 1r and 2v. Pasted into a modern card folder, and mounted impermanently on cords within an early 20th century folder containing all 3 sections of Mus. 1205.

Provenance unknown. Formerly shelved within the Portfolios at position I.2.γ (the reference 'I.2.γ' is written in red crayon on f. 1v). In Havergal Summary, the contents of that portfolio are described only in summary as '14 Anonymous anthems, mostly separate, with fragments of others, & 3 services in parts. MS'.
