Analysis. — This song is based on the second five-toned scale." It 

 begins on the octave and -the principal interval of descent is the 

 minor third. The long note at the beginning of the measure is often 

 slightly prolonged. The metric unit of voice and drum is the same, 

 but the voice deviates somewhat, while the drum is maintained with 

 mechanical regularity. This song is given with the peculiar vibrato 

 which characterizes the I'.Iide' dancing songs.
