No. 126. Record IV. C. 68a 

 The tonality lies between Bb and F majors 



These rests are doubtless due to a fault in the record. Probably one measure 

 should belong with the following connective.

Faults in the record make places in this transcription of doubtful accuracy. 

 They are Indicated by question marks, which are usually reserved only for the 

 he he he or hu hu hu syllables. Comparison may be made with the music, which 

 shows the difficulties better than a discussion. The song is probably a pisik 

 with prelude but with the undivided verse. 



If the tonality be considered as B major then the tim.e starts on the tonic 

 with the last half-beat of the measure and ends on the same degree, although 

 it is a question if this is the true end of the song.
