326 Canadian Arctic Expedition, 1913-18 



This is the one absolutely regular song in the entire collection from the 

 standpoint of the number of measures, or primary accents to the phrase, and 

 almost from the standpoint of the actual number of beats to each. The extension 

 of B provides a fourth phrase, if not independent, to complete the unique six- 

 phrase form. In its larger aspect the song is three part, each subdivided into 

 two nearly identical phrases, and repeated once in its entirety. The song begins 

 on the first beat of the measure, with the third degree of the minor scale and 

 ends on the tonic, which is the general level. Compare the melody with that of 

 No. 100 and the second phrase of No. 97.
