This one doesn't mention harpsichords, but I thought you people might want to know: The homely house, that harbours quiet rest, The cottage that affords nor pride nor care; The mean, that 'grees with country music best The sweet consort of mirth and music's fare; Obscured life sets down a type of bliss! A mind content, both crown and kingdom is! by Robert Greene (1560?-1592) Judith Conrad, Clavichord Player (jconrad@sunspot.tiac.net) Director of Fall River Fipple Fluters Church Musician at First Congregational Church, Bristol, R.
