  • This voluminous manuscript (mostly lute solo, some duets: treble & ground or just duet parts; some items for bandora) from the library of Archbishop Narcissus Marsh (1638-1713) might be written c1595 with just a few addings a bit later, mostly by a single scribe, who surely knew what kind of material is included: it lacks a table of contents and broadly a useful clue to title/composer/arranger.
  • In this case it is indispensable to use all available assignations to decide what it is, e.g.:
  • Info: Julia Craig-McFeely, diss.; content: Table 23
