and “key ” are not fully adapted to the analysis of Indian songs and 
should be understood as being used chiefly for convenience of observa- 
tion. The tonality is not established, as the third above B flat does 
not occur. The final tone is unaccented. Other songs with this 
peculiarity are noted in the analysis of No. 12. The song has a 
range of only five tones, and the only progressions are fourths and 
_ major seconds, which are about equal in number. Throughout the 
three renditions the drum was slightly faster than the voice. The 
tempo of the voice was fairly regular, though not rigidly main- 
tained.. At the end of the first section and also at the close of the 
song the voice trailed downward in a glissando. (See analysis of 
No. 1.) 
The progressions in this song are 
shown in figure 6. (Cf. similar dia- 
gram of song No. 72.)
