[Pal120

Ben mi credea passar mio tempo omai Cz (ABCCBAaCcDdEE)

Poet: 

Petrarch

Language: 

it-frot

Composer: 

Trombon- cino

Lauda: 

Ben mi credea, Jesù, sotto le fronde-a Cz (ABCCBAaCcDdEE)

Notes: 

note: though the lauda is transmitted in Pal120 and R196 with a cc. of modo proprio, the poetic model is clearly Petrarch’s canzone, ‘Be mi credea passar mio tempo omai’, of which there is a musical setting by Tromboncino in PetF/xi, ed. LuisiFr, no. 7. Tromboncino’s cantus in this piece is unusually declamatory, more reciting tone than full-fledged melody.
