The prelude proper is a very brief introduction, although as customary the 

 refrain is also given with it. It was not indicated in the text whether or not 

 the verses were subdivided, but the words would suggest the division that has 

 been made here. The C phrase and the first part of the D in the second part of 

 the first verse are altered melodically and in length from those in the first part. 

 The song begins on the fifth degree of the major scale and on the down beat, 

 but the tonality is not positively established for the tonic occurs only once, in 

 the second measure of the song. According to the ends of the previous refrains 

 the final note should be the fifth degree also.
