Dowland, John - English Lute Songs   

This book contains 12 of the most beautiful songs of John Dowland, the greatest song-writer of Elizabethan & Jacobean England and an exact contemporary of Shakespeare. It includes not only some of his best-known and favourite songs, but also some of the finest songs from his late period.
