Description
Instrumental arrangement of the three part madrigal by Weelkes "Come, Sirrah Jack, ho! Fill some tobacco"
(written in the "innocent" days of the Renaissance, when they knew little of the dangers of tobacco).
In the second verse I have switched the voices round, giving the original top tune to the bottom voice and changed a few notes in the harmony.
