No. Title Voices Voices Comments
1 Unquiet thoughts
2 Who ever thinks or hopes of love for love 4
3 My thoughts are winged with hopes 4
4 If my complaints could passions move 4
5 Can she excuse my wrongs with virtue's cloak 4
6 Now, O now, I needs must part 4
7 Dear, if you change I'll never choose again 4
8 Burst forth my tears 4
9 Go crystal tears 4
10 Thinkst thou then by thy feigning 4
11 Come away, come sweet love 4
12 Rest a while you cruel cares 4
13 Sleep wayward thoughts 4
14 All ye, whom love or fortune hath betrayed 4
15 Wilt thou unkind thus reave me of my heart? 4
16 Would my conceit that first enforced my woe 4
17 Come again sweet love doth now invite 4
18 His golden locks time hath to silver turn'd 4
19 Awake sweet love thou art returned 4
20 Come heavy sleep 4
21 Away with these self-loving lads 4
22 A Galliard for two to play upon one Lute
