Another simple balletto with a verse/chorus structure, a bit like Conto dell'Orco, however this time the dance is in triple time.

This reconstruction is based on one by Adina Hamilton, although I have reconstructed figure 6 differently. Adina has the dancers facing forwards but holding hands across the body in this section -- see the footnote on Bassa Honorata as to why my reconstruction differs to Adina's in this area.
