 Laughter here before and after the connective destroys the continuity.

As to measure content and the number of measures in a phrase the song is 

 quite regular, but in the actual number of beats there is considerable laxity. In 

 the first phrase the two measures that appear at the beginning of the other CA 

 phrases are missing and the second phrase is also cut short so that this part is 

 similar to a prelude. A flaw in the record at this point may be accountable for 

 the differences in this part of the song. In some respects the structure resembles 

 that of the pisik but there are no refrains. Presumably after the connectives 

 new verses are introduced but they are not marked in the text. 



The song begins on the last half -beat, third degree, and ends on that tone.
