 +The tune is the work of Giovanni Coprario or John Cooper (c. 1570–1626) and is contained in a manuscript of five pieces entitled "​Graysin"​ or "​Grayes Inne Masque"​ (now in the British Museum MS ADD, 10444). ​ The masque, performed by Grays Inne and Inner Temple, celebrated the marriage of Princess Elizabeth to Frederick, Elector Palatine in 1613. It is thought that the music was part of the anti-masque to provide light entertainment before the more formal activities of the masque itself. (Graham Christian, 2015). At some point, it is thought that a dancing master choreographed this elegant country dance to be danced to the tune.
