An example of minor-key Renaissance music. The 2nd chord in the first two lines, ^bVIIv, is an optional passing chord. The V7 chord is translated as Vv,^7, because Vv7 sounds inappropriate. The chord is voiced 1-5-7-10, and the interval from the 7th up to the 10th is a mid 4th. Somehow 11/8 sounds less out of place than 10/7! The melody uses the ^4th, to match this chord and also the ^bVIIv chord. The plain 4th is only used as part of the IV^m chord.
