SHAKESPEARE AND MUSIC

Haye,' the Hay of Shakespeare. Arbeau says—first the dancers dance alone, each separately; then together so as to interlace, 'et font la haye les uns parmy les aultres.' That is, during each batch of 4 steps, the dancers change places one with another, so that if there are three dancers, A, B, C, in the first 4 steps, B and A change places, and make B, A, C; in the next 4 steps, C and A change places, and make B, C, A, etc.

Here is the tune and the formula of steps—

The Haye.

${ \key f \major \time 4/4 \relative g' { \repeat volta 2 { \partial 2 r2*1/2 g | c^"1" c c d | g, g g a | bes^"2" bes g bes | a1*1/2 r2*1/2 a | %eol 1 c^"3" c c d | g, g g bes | a^"4" g a f | g1*1/2 r2*1/2 g | %eol 2 c^"5" bes c d | e1*1/2 e2*1/2 f | e^"6" d4*1/2 c d2*1/2 d | c1*1/2 r2*1/2 c | %eol 3 f^"7" f f e | d1*1/2 d2*1/2 d | c^"8" c bes bes | a1*1/2 } } }$

Beginning at the 1st complete bar, and reckoning one step to each semibreve—1. Deux simples (ss).
