X:573 T:Lovely Polly. Roose.0573 B:Roose MS, poss. Manchester, mid-late 19th century. Z:Village Music Project 2019 Roger Hare M:C L:1/8 Q:1/4=120 K:Bb N:Primo and voice overlay interchanged in bar 28 to make the score look like the MS (See N:notes to No. 567). Speculative closing repeat mark inserted at the very end to match the N:opening repeat at bar 8 - I'm never quite sure how to interpret these 'alternative' N:19th century repeat marks!
