note: lauda re. St. John the Baptist

note: see ‘Vieni a me’ as a laude with Serafino Aquilano’s ‘Amore io vo fuggendo’ as a cc. for information on Lorenzo’s lauda.

note: in LA424, sent to ‘frate Lorenzo de’ Ricci in Santa Maria Novella’.

note: see ‘Crocifisso’ as a lauda w/its own cc. sources. Lauda text entered in R2929, which was copied by 1448.

note: this lauda shares an identical form and rhyme scheme with another transmitted in the same sources, ‘Questa è quella croce grande’, which has a cc. of ‘Quest’è donne un arber grande’; it is likely, therefore, that the cc. ‘L’alboro [albero] della ghiande [grande?]’ is a reference to this same (carnival song?) title.

note: also in LA424, with indication that the lauda was ‘sent to Giovanni di Jacopo vaiaio’. Rubric in Gall4 = ‘cantasi come--di ben morire’, though this sounds more like a topical rubric (which it appears to be in LA424).

note: GhisiCC, 99 tentatively lists this pair among carnival songs with travestimenti spirituali.
