Manuscript. A portfolio folder (early 20th century; upright format, 392 x 265 mm.) containing 11 discrete and unrelated items. Small adjustments to the call-numbers and foliation were made in August 1998; these will not be visible in microfilms made before that date. Formerly Mus. 1199, then Mus. 1127.

Microfilm: manuscript music, reel 39.

  • Mus. 1215(1) Daniel Roseingrave, 'Lord, thou art become gracious'. Score, copied probably c. 1682-4 by Henry Purcell, with title and text incipits added by Roseingrave.
  • Mus. 1215(2) [John Blow], canon 'No Lucinda I swear the temptations so sweet' for two voices and continuo. Autograph score, torn and incomplete at end; the remainder of this sheet is now Mus. 1188-9 (f. 18). English, late 17th century.
  • Mus. 1215(3) Organ parts for verse anthems by John Ward, copied by Stephen Bing; English, 1630s.
  • Mus. 1215(4) Anonymous cantata, 'O quanto è contenta quell'alma'. Copyist unidentified; probably English, mid 17th century. The name 'Roseingrave', faintly visible at the top of f. 1r, has been added by a different hand.
  • Mus. 1215(5) Vocal work for three voices and continuo, in score. Originally copied with the Italian text 'Colui che partesi dal Regno amabile' in an unidentified hand, late 17th century. Partially re-texted in German (starting 'Warum') in a different but contemporary hand. Possibly the setting of 'Colui che partesi' doubtfully attributed elsewhere to Antonio Sartorio.

  • Mus. 1215(9) Fragment of an unidentified Italian cantata, opening with the words '-cida ch'è senza pietà'. Copyist unidentified, presumably Italian, late 17th century.
  • Mus. 1215(10) Doggerel song on a ground bass, beginning 'Hi jinko brisco alphonzo'. Copied by Richard Goodson Sr; apparently his composing score. English, late 17th century.
  • Mus. 1215(11) Daniel Purcell, 'In spight of Despair the young & the fair' ('Song between hope & Despair'). Copied by an unidentified hand that has been designated 'London A' [?Francis Pigott] in the Purcell literature; English, early C18th.
